Well it did catch my attention they used a 172.16.0.0 address, however it is possible that his smartphone was used in a virtual network, where his remote server hosted elsewhere physically shared the same network.
I guess the reason they used 172.16, is because not everyone knows it's a reserved for private / internal use, plus it looks cooler than 192.168 that pretty much everybody knows about, and 10.X is often seen in corporations.
It's rarely I see anyone using 172.16 anymore, so I guess it was okay hehe but you are right I was also like, wtf c'mooon xD

I wouldn't be so bothered by them using a 172.16 address if the actual host address wasn't "1". I can't think of the last time I had a server in the "1" space; that's almost always the gateway router.
