Not at all. I am not using frequency statistics for this evaluation, except as evidence for how gullible people can be.
The problem however is, that just because something doesn't happen frequently, doesn't give you any evidence for your claim. That doesn't follow from showing that the occurrence is rare, that someone is gullible for believing it.... that's just bad logic, as shown by the equivocation.
