Or try this if you are on Marshmallow.
Find the permission list for "draw over other apps"
List here all the apps with toggle set to "on"
Go to the Device Settings
Tap "Apps"
On the top right, tap the gear/ 3dots icon
Under Advanced, chose "Draw over other apps"

Except it has permission, you need to find the list of apps with permission to draw over others and identify the one pushing this overlay ramdomly
