Strange text message

Yesterday I received this text message. When I try to open it, it immediately deletes but comes back after awhile. When I delete it it comes back after awhile. It does not remove the notification No matter what. Help!

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Try and Force Restart your iPhone exactly as shown below and see whether that resolves the issue:

  • Press and quickly release Volume UP button
  • Press and quickly release Volume DOWN button
  • Press and Hold the SIDE button until an Apple logo appears then release the Side button (Can take up to 20 seconds. DO NOT release Side Button when invited to Slide Power OFF).
