if you are seeing large fragmented udp packets.. it's almost always not
spoofed.
or historically speaking anyway it's not been spoofed.

There are cases with dns reflection that include spoofing, but by the time
you see the large packet .. that's not spoofed it's coming from the dns
server talking to you, why it's talking to you is due to spoofing, but
that's outside (most times) your span of control.
