Yesterday, for the forth or fifth time.

Support tickets can take 3 to 7 weekdays for a response. Each New ticket causes even more delay.

What is your ticket number?

Also, could you show a screenshot of the McAfee popup?

This looks like a trend we're seeing these days with browser notifications from a website. This would not be due to anything malicious installed on your computer, and instead means that you were tricked into allowing notifications from a scam website in Safari.

If you're on macOS Ventura, open System Settings, then click Notifications. Under Application Notifications, find one that mentions McAfee and that uses the System Settings icon (shown in your screenshot above). Click on that one, then turn off the master switch at the top to allow notifications for that item.

If you are not using Ventura, you'll need to go into Safari's settings, within the Safari app, and click Websites -> Notifications, then remove the item from there.
