After 3-4 minutes I think you captured a lot of packets. If those were the only ones with the wrong FCS among hundreds of them, it's totally normal.

Have a nice day

They definitely look like junk... did the capture contain *only* such

Which AirPcap adapter are you using (Classic, Tx, Ex, Nx)?

I only captured for 3-4 minutes using AirPcap 4.0 Classic.
(the one you kindly gave me).
