    Could this be a reflective DDOS?

    The main difference between that and traditional backscatter is
    that would mean your being targeted. And the hosts 
    that sent you these packets are being used to hide the
    real attacking hosts.

    Reset, Ack's -> a response from host with closed ports.
    So I'd say that "attackers" in this case were sent a syn packet with the
    port numbers reversed ie
    213.114.155.74 was sent a syn on port 32320.

    Notice that acq is the same in many of these packets!
    2093292673 occurs here from several DIFFERENT machines.
    That implies that those hosts were all hit
    with a syn packet with an seq number 2093292672, then 
    they all added 1 to that and said "I dont run that service" (ack/reset)
    back to a.b.24.105.
