If these scam messages are briefly popping up in the upper-right-hand corner of the screen, that would suggest they are being delivered as Web notifications: a "feature" of modern Web standards much abused by spammers and scammers.
See: Stop unwanted Notifications - Apple Community for instructions on how to block them in Safari. If you are using any other Web browsers, block them in those browsers, too. (The controls may be in different places, but what you're trying to block is the same.)

👍
FYI those instructions now include all popular browsers, but if you know of others I will research and add them.
