Malware?

On my notification bar I've been receiving a '+' sign. Today it shows 'win $1000 app prize' and yesterday it was something about winning something from Sprint. I have the Lookout app, but it's not detecting anything wrong. Has anyone experienced this or something similar? How do I stop this from popping up on my notification bar?

Ok, I found the problem. It was a live wallpaper Halloween app that was sending the spam. If I remember correctly the creators name was akaish&maishevg or something close to that.
