I am seeing more backscatter-looking activity on port 7000 from AS4134 
(and one from AS4887) from the following IP addresses:

4134    | 121.14.151.239   | CHINANET-BACKBONE No.31,Jin-rong Street
4134    | 58.221.28.35     | CHINANET-BACKBONE No.31,Jin-rong Street
4837    | 218.61.11.32     | CHINA169-BACKBONE CNCGROUP China169 Backbone

Anyone else seeing (apparent) backscatter SYN-ACKs from these hosts/ASes?
