Make sure that in acl_check_rcpt you have before any "accept":

require verify = recipient

and that a router detects non-existing local addresses, for example:

unknown_users:
driver = redirect
condition = ${lookup {$local_part@$domain} lsearch {/usr/local/etc/exim/passwd} {no} {yes} }
allow_fail = yes
data = :fail: Unknown user
no_more

localuser:
driver = accept
transport = local_delivery

If that doesn't help then post an unedited header of an example of
backscatter you are talking about, with explanation about all
email addresses and mailboxes mentioned in it.
