What is going on with port 3333?, (Tue, Jan 9th)

We've seen a spike over the last day or so in reports of apparent scanning on TCP %%port:3333%%. I have serious doubts that anyone is actually looking for DEC Notes which is the registered IANA use for this port. While we're getting our own honeypots set up, I figured I'd ask our readers, do you have packets and/or any idea what is going on here? Please let us know in the comments or via our contact page. Thanx in advance.

Update: 2018-01-09 03:00 The original version of this diary inadvertantly said the traffic was UDP, the traffic that I am seeing in my logs at home is actually TCP. My apologies for the confusion.
