Hi,

What phone are you using.

can you attach screen shots ?

With some phones you can pull down a notification screen down from the top of the phones screen and clear them there.

We will need to know what the notifications are to be able to help.

It's a galaxy s3 he's using I pulled down the notification bar to see if there was anything on it but nothing that would make that message appear

Never seen that before at all.....
I can only guess they must be coming from an app he has installed ?

You need the picture saved to your pc, then press "reply" and choose the image tab from the top of the reply box.

@nevzy31

Have you managed to find some more info on this yet ?

OK, I've found what you're seeing. It's one of the lock screen options that you can set. If selected it will show a summary of sms, email and other message services. You get to it by touching on the clock on the lock screen and sliding your finger to the right.
If you no longer want it on lock screen press and hold on the box and drag it to the bin at top of screen.
