Weird text message issue

[jengo75]

Last night a friend sent me a text message. Part of the message was normal but after each period the word STOP. Appeared. The last line of the text was STOP will advise. Anyone know what this means. He has an LG lucid that is three years old and im using a galaxy s4 that just updated to lollipop a month or so ago. He hasn't returned my text so im just curious if its just something he sent by mistake or if its one of our phones acting funky.

Welcome to Android Forums.

What texting app is he using on his phone? What texting app are you using on your phone?

We are both using the stock app

No one downloaded a joke app to make a text look like an old telegram from the 30s?

I honestly think it could have been him using voice to text. It could have been my phone too. It has been acting funky since the lollipop update.
