Either you're hitting the button or something is wrong with the software. Factory reset and make sure you aren't hitting the button or return the device.

Have you ever tried to bring it to Samsung store where you get it? to see if it is defective?

Has happened to me a few times, forgetting to lock the screen before sticking the phone in my pocket

If you have the swipe to screenshot turned on this can happen easily by accident. I turn mine off. I recently set my screen to go to sleep after 10 mins for a project... and forgot to change it back... My phone was doing all kinds of crazy stuff in my pocket.
