Why are spam texts showing at the bottom of the screen?

[Android Central Question]

I recently started recieving notifications from the messages app at the bottom of the screen. It will read exactly like a spam text and usually have a URL or phone number to click on, but instead of being in the notification bar at the top of the screen it appears as a pop-up message at the bottom with a "continue" button beneath it. When I check in the messages app there is no history of recieving the spam text, so I can't block or report the phone number.

This will happen any time of day whether my phone is unlocked or not. If my phone is locked, it will vibrate as if I got a text but no notification will be shown in the pull down menu. As soon as I unlock the phone the pop-up appears as described before.

I do not want to remove all notifications from the messages app, and I'm not talking about the little bubble on the app icon.

Please help me figure this out.

Do they persist in Safe Mode?
