This is a question Urban Legends

I'm ashamed to admit it, but I fell for the "Bob Holness played the saxophone on Gerry Rafferty's Baker Street" story some years back. It just seemed so right. I still want it to be true.

What have you fallen for, or even better, what legends have you started?

People believe everything I say.
When I worked in retail, our shop was opening another branch in the next town. All the new staff were in our store for training and I mentioned that the Queen Mother (she was alive at the time so it was credible)was doing the store opening and they would all have to learn how to bow and curtsey (sp?) to her. Bunch of mugs believed it all.
None of them wondered why the Queen Mum would be doing the opening of some poxy car parts shop.


My sister on the other hand falls for every scam in the book. She signed up to some guys scheme where he claimed to be able to predict horse race winners. All she had to do was pay A certain amount each week - £50 by direct debit i seem to remember - and he would leave a recorded message each day she and all the other mugs could listen to where he predicted the winners.
Im just waiting for her to wire-transfer all her money to some dude in Nigeria who has promised her £20mil.
