Switch on the access logs in Apache, if they aren't already on. Then you can 
see if someone is indeed returning them and from what ip. 

It's incredibly unlikely Koha is doing this itself or we would have had many 
many reports of this. 

The fact you are seeing returns.pl in the error log means someone or something 
is hitting the returns page. 
(they are warns and can be ignored but it does help us track down that someone 
is using the returns page. Access logs will tell us much more)
