I was having the EXACT issue. I ended up finding the app that was causing this notification to pop up and delete the file. It was in my Application folder. 2 of them actually. One named "Malware Crusher" and then I also had a folder named "_MacOSx" (if you open the folder you will see another app called malware crusher). I deleted both and now I am not having the issue any more. I haven't had the notification pop up for over 2 days now so if you had this then you know how many times a day it would pop up.

Thank you SO MUCH. This helped a TON and surprisingly, the MalwareBytes thing they mentioned above didn't seem to help. We'll see. But thanks again
