What is this message on the lock screen? I get this at really random times and very rarely. Is this a bug? If so, I'll report it. If it's not a big, then what is it?...

I'm in an extremely fortunate position where my Mom, upon learning about current mortgage rates and why I haven't bought a house yet, wants to essentially be my bank to buy a house. As in, she wants to fund the house, put it in my name, and I pay her a reasonable down payment and pay a "mortgage" to her at 2-3%. So what would be...
