urban legend

Def: A modern myth. A frightening untrue story in which the storyteller insists is true, but has no evidence to back up. Also, it never happened to the storyteller but someone removed from them.

So did you ever meet your friend's mom's Arab boyfriend that left the note on the door? Sounds like an urban legend to me.
