You have likely visited pushnotstudio[.]com and permitted it to display the browser notifications. This site uses fake CAPTCHA verification to deceive visitors into allowing the notifications.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications, do not permit dubious websites to display them (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or similar options). Instead, ignore notification requests or deny them (i.e., "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser randomly force-open suspicious/questionable sites, it is likely due to adware installed onto it or the system. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.

How to avoid browser notification spam?
Internet users should be very skeptical when being asked to allow notifications. While this is a useful feature that allows you to receive timely news from websites you like, deceptive marketers frequently abuse it.
Only allow notifications from websites that you fully trust. For added security - use an anti-malware application with a real-time web browsing monitor to block shady websites that tries to trick you into allowing spam notifications. We recommend using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows.
