Getting weird pop ups for advanced mac cleaner

Hello, I have been getting strange pop ups that do not look legit at all on my macbook pro for a few days now. As you can see in the picture, it is a weird "special easter sale on mac cleaner" and it is really annoying. Does anyone know how to remove those?

Thank you!

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.13

Pop-ups for Mac Cleaner and Defender. (Mac running OSX 10.12.6) How do I get rid of these annoying pop-ups (am I naive or should I be concerned about them saying 'issues detected') Should I think about using some sort of anti-malware protection? Conventional wisdom is that these things do as much harm as good.

law and crime popup balloon Starting three days ago or so, every time I log onto my MacBook Air, a popup balloon appears in the upper right corner of the screen. Its title is Law & Crime. I try clicking on it and nothing. In the App Store it is available to download but I haven't downloaded anything onto my Mac from the App Store. I don't know where it came from but I would like to get rid of it. It apparently came as perhaps an attachment/Malware from something else. I have a MacBook Air 2020, running macOS Big Sur 11.2.3. Any ideas?
