Like, so rare that it's generally not worth questioning unless you have first-hand knowledge of the situation (i.e. you were literally there), and even then, you may not have enough context to refute a claim.

The only rule of thumb that might work may be to be inherently skeptical of people who go around telling everyone everything terrible another person has done without it being relevant to the current conversation/scenario, but even that can be legit. False accusations are rare.
