I clicked on urbanlegends. They’re as moon-batty as Snopes.

Hoaxbusters was a good site to go to for many years. It was maintained by the Computer Incident Advisory Capability at the US Dept. of Energy. They are no longer supporting it and have invited any other US agency to come forward to host it if they wish.

Their files still exist and even provide directions to minimize the spread of hoaxes, chain letters, urban myths and other bogus information being routed around the Internet.
