One solution that seems obvious to me is - the OS itself can detect fake popups such as this. It can even be a fast neural net that checks the screen, say, once a second.

A neural net for what could be a simple string comparison?

It must be an image comparison, and it's can be a simple 1-to-1, because all it takes is one modified pixel to break that. That's why it has to be some sort of an image recognition technology.

A string comparison would not catch my next attack, a bitmap-based imitation.
