What are these pop-ups I am getting on the bottom of my screen? Please help!

[Android Central Question]

Approximately once a day, I have been getting
a pop-up in a white bubble on the bottom portion of the screen. Sometimes they are there when I turn my screen on, and once it popped up while in an app. There is no X to close them, and I have to hit the back button or circle to get rid of them. They always have a link or a phone number that does not appear to be any legitimate numbers or websites per google searches. I have factory reset my phone, and I am still getting these pop-ups daily. I have installed and ran AVG antivirus and Malware bytes and nothing bad is found. I have not recently downloaded any news apps either. Please help! I have screen shots of these pop-ups but don't see an option to share them.

they are called toast notifications. install this app to find out what is sending them to you so that you can uninstall it

Welcome to Android Central! I agree with testing it with the Toast Source app fuzzylumpkin linked above.

Also, a screenshot would be helpful as well: http://forums.androidcentral.com/ge...ide-how-post-screenshots-android-central.html. Posting images on the forums has been a little buggy lately -- it seems to work best if you're using the Tapatalk app.
