Weird Scan

Hello,

Today I've received some weird traffic maybe you guys already met.
It was a regular 2-packet-long-SYN-scan to port 80.
My deception tool kit answered the call, with 3 SYN-ACK packets,
only to receive 3 RSTs.
At the first moment I thought it to be a '6sense' kind-of stealth scan,
but investigating the TTL and packet's IP id numbers, I decided both
the SYN and the RST packets came from the same host.
More surprisingly is the fact the dtk logged those attempts as coming
from 192.168.0.3.  (yap, 192.168.0.0 is the local network).
But I'm not sure it's relevant.

Anyone ?

Thanks,
centipede.
