Urban Legends are very similar to old wives tales, while not all urban legends are false, their truth is usually somewhat exaggerated.  Most of the urban legends are now being distributed as much as spam.  

The SpamZapper^® blocks the distribution of spam, and may consider that many urban legends are spam as well.  While we do not contribute to the sending of spam, we all have our friends and families to thank for continuing to spread the gossip, or urban legends.

If you find that your friends are spreading the perverbial legend about, send them our way to gain the protection of the SpamZapper^®.
