It is most likely some game or app that has been installed. Try running in safe mode for a few hours. If it stops, it's a downloaded app, if it continues, we have other issues.
Start in Safe Mode
- Power the phone off.
- Turn the phone back on while pressing and holding the “Volume Down” button.
- Keep holding the “Volume Down” button until the Home screen loads. The lower-left corner should say “Safe Mode“.

Will try this now. Its not all the time but at random times. Is there a way I can check for things like this on the downloaded apps I have now?

Most anti virus apps will have a feature that scans and lets you know if you have some sort of push-ad permissions or other similar traits within downloaded apps. Any app advertised as "in-app purchases" will usually have these ads.

So should I avoid those type apps?

Yes, if you want to avoid advertisements, but it's hard to do so when apps are free.
