Strange TIF attachment (Outlook.com)

So basically, I was on Outlook.com (the website, not the Outlook app) on the Google Chrome browser when I made the dumb mistake of clicking on a sketchy attachment (named exactly "v .tif"). The reason I clicked on it was because I was under the illusion that it would simply preview it in the browser, rather than initiate/attempt a download of that suspicious file. So anyway, I clicked it and a popup immediately came up asking if I wanted to download the file. Obviously, I clicked "Cancel", and after clicking that button, the popup quickly went away but underneath the name of the attachment listed in the email, it said "Downloaded" even though I could not find the file anywhere on my computer even after searching the direct name. And it was not listed in the Incognito (I was using Incognito mode at the time) download history or anywhere at all. And either way, I didn't open the TIF file. And after turning off my internet and running a Malwarebytes Free scan, it says nothing was detected. Should I still be worried? Thank you so much for any help, I truly appreciate it!

EDIT: For clarification, I am running macOS Sonoma.

Hi, ya maybe should as some stuff is in 2 parts.  You may have downloaded the 1st part.

Anyway, empty all your browser Cache files, empty Temp Folders and Possibly see about running MBAM in Safe Mode.  What does a scan with Xprotect say ??

I cleared all my browser cache files, cookies, etc. and I also emptied my temp folders by deleting everything inside of the ~/Library/Caches/ directory. I scanned with Malwarebytes Free again today and it's still saying no threats detected, even though I scanned in normal mode rather than in safe mode. I honestly can't find any trace of the file when using Finder. Did the file not actually download? Should I still be concerned after doing all of this? Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to help me!
