You could turn it off in app settings, or it could be that you have a virus.

Do I have to turn off the Samsung store altogether?

No, just go to settings, then apps, and it should give you an option to turn it off

You could stop buying carrier locked phones.

No the store is set up differently than the other apps, but I just turned off two of the options, so I will see where that gets me - Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it. This is my first Samsung phone.

I got it wrong, go to safety and privacy, and there should be an option to turn it off or on, and if it's off and still doing it then you have a virus

If these games only get downloaded after a monthly update, it is your carrier putting them on your phone. The reason carriers offer great deals is they get paid a lot of money to put them on your phone.
You can't stop it. It's in the fine print why you sign your agreement.
Unlocked devices don't have carrier bloatware!
