Suspicious in Sarasota

Dear Neologist,

Is there a word for alibis/explanations so badly and weirdly phrased that they completely convince you that the person giving them is guilty? Because after reading this one* I wouldn't trust this person with even a pet rock.

Dear Suspicious,

It took the Neologist several minutes to wrap their brain around this message—which should be all the proof you need that the Neologist is not, in fact, a giant boa constrictor. 

After giving thisss some thought, it is clear that this person is offering a 

Glaubwürdigkeitszerstörende Glaubwürdigkeitsbezeugung
     f, glaoob'-verdig-kites-tsur-shter'-un-duh glaoob'-verdig-kites-ba-tsoy-gong
     (a credibility-destroying credibility-declaration)

Sadly, even a cursory glance at the political landscape of our day suggests that this neologism was long needed and will see frequent use going forward. Stay strong!
Mit herzlichen Grüßen,

The Neologist
