Weird IP

Hi everyone,

I am working on a case of fraud in my little organisation where we are
dealing with fraudulent credit cards. The only thing I can see is the
IP address has been logged as
172.16.x.x but isn't that Class B internal? How are they doing this? I
mean how are packets being routed between our web-server and that IP?
Any recommendations other than my blanked block all Class A and Class
B IPs?

Thanks Heaps,
J
