What should I do if the bot ignores a message that starts with @ & symbols?

Question

Python

If in text.lower() == the first letter is capitalized or some character like @ % &, the bot ignores your request.

if text.lower() == '@id24159122': 
            try:
                vk.messages.send(
                    chat_id=event.chat_id,
                    message='Сообщение', #ответ бота
                    random_id=get_random_id(),
                )
            except Exception as e:
                print ("Ошибка")

Answer 1

In text.lower() another text

Answer 2

Print the text of the message, something tells me that @id24159122 is never there
