This station had about 17 false tips over that night of Dec 15/16, and a similar looking set of false tips the next night, after the station visit of Dec 16.
Doing a quick look back through the plots shows similar false-looking tips every night between Nov 23 and Dec 1 with the exception of the nights of Nov 27 and 28. There are a few false-looking tips during the day, but most of them are at night. Typically the tips occurred throughout the night, and were not an isolated incident which one might expect from a prankster.
