i think youre referring to nmap's decoy option (-D).

true, you will only receive the packets destined for your ip. but your ip _and_ the 
decoy ip/ip's you provided show up in a log file, instead of _just_ your ip. this 
makes it more difficult for someone examining a log file to tell where the scan's true 
source is from.
