  "And so simple that I found lots of more or less similar stories..." It is a hallmark of urban legends. This story seems to originate with the case Bodine v.

Your tale seems more likely to stem from the 1990s movie "Liar, Liar": http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119528/quotes?qt0372695 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119528/quotes?qt0372695
