Welcome wongtk!
As Don B said, it is most likely spam. If it seems suspicious, it probably is, just delete it or ask about it like you did
Thanks for joining

I even get this from time to time as a pop up from websites :/ very rarely though. Haven't figured out a fix yet.

Welcome to AF! Hope you enjoy your stay here.

It could be a rogue app you downloaded, and you could search the Google Play store for a malware or ad app just to see if it can find the app that is causing it...

Otherwise it might just be a process of uninstalling and checking

Also, welcome to the site

yes... most probly is downloaded the games from add. I think i should delete all the rogue app.

Thanks all.

I don't think it's an app, because my wife gets them on her Evo 4g and we don't exactly have the same apps :/ along with a buddy of mine as well

If you do not have the same apps then it could just be a breach in something you downloaded and such, the best way to get rid of something like that is to either, like i said, find the rogue app by installing a malware finder or adblocker, or just factory reset the device...
