We got two of these yesterday for addresses that are not ours. One was sort of adjacent... and seemed plausibly fat-fingered. 204.144.161.0 ≠ 204.144.151.0 We will definitely filter out anything further. Thanks for the heads-up.

I can confirm we started seeing this on Nov 9th at 19:10 UTC across all markets from a variety of sources. If you want to filter it with ingress ACLs they need to include subnet base and broadcast addresses in addition to interface address, so a router at 192.168.1.1/30 with a customer potentia
