No, they're notification spam.
A site you visited added itself to notifications in Safari. Everything you're seeing is nothing but a scam.
Open Safari's preferences. Click on the Websites tab and then scroll down to Notifications. Clear any entries in the right hand window. You might find something similar in the Pop-up Windows heading below that. Block any you don't recognize.
Then if you want, uncheck the box below as shown here.
I personally can't think of any reason why I would ever want any website to push notices to me.
