It would be interesting to know what's causing the duplicates. Although they have exactly the same content, the timestamps are a couple of minutes later. It seems unlikely that vBulletin is somehow duplicating them, as all the POSTed data will evaporate after the first submission, and there's no obvious way it could be resurrected in such a way as to be available for processing into a new thread.
One other avenue is that the same HTTP POST is being submitted twice, a few minutes apart. This would suggest broken client software such as a browser (or a broken HTTP networking stack) that the unwitting victims are all using. (Could it be the Tapatalk app?) Or maybe some ISP has an intermediary proxy of some kind which has lost its marbles, and the relevant threads all travelled through it when first submitted.
Or it could be admin messing with our heads late at night

Has it anything to do with the new mobile app? (I have my suspicions...
)
