getting an error trying to download macOS Mojave

I am trying to download and install the macOS Mojave.app. I keep getting a Pop up stating "This copy of the Install macOS Mojave.app application is damaged, and can't be used to install macOS.

Do you have a solution for this?

I don't want to install catalina due to issues with the creative suite.

Delete any copies of "Install macOS Mojave" that are in the Applications folder and try again while in Safe Mode.
