Texts showing up in another language

[AC Question]

Randomly ,texts from my friend who has the iPhone 5 starting coming thru on my end in all Chinese symbols. It only happens with her texts but it doesn't happen To anyone else she texts. And it isn't every text she sends. Only. me. So it's something with my phone. I have the LG g4. Any idea what is going on?

I'm having the exact same problem and it started yesterday (10/17/16). I have the LG Optimus Pro. I've received text from 2 different people (both have an iPhone 6s) and some texts come through fine, while others are in Chinese symbols. I've scanned my phone with an antivirus app and everything appears to be okay, yet random text with Chinese symbols. Anyone with any ideas???
