Metro customers have recently reported their carrier-locked phones showing ads on the lock screen. Disable this in the Metro Play app. Better yet, disable or uninstall the app altogether if you can.

If you are not a Metro customer, check for any other malicious apps. Samsung's Nice Catch app can help identify unwanted behaviors so you can delete the offending app.

Turn on the various categories in Nice Catch.

When the undesirable behavior happens again, check Nice Catch to see which app triggered it.
