格鲁吉亚总是对难民人数作出推测,并同时接受大量提供给子虚乌有的难民的国际援助。
Georgia usually speculates about the number of refugees while receiving substantial international assistance for non-existent refugees.

我们对这些子虚乌有的谣言从何而来很感兴趣。
We're interested in the source of these fictitious rumours.
----------------------------------

Editor:
In the second example, the rumours (谣言) do exist; it's just that they have no basis in fact.
The same can be said of the 故事 and 罪名 and 說法 in the following examples.
- 他講的那些故事只是子虛烏有,你居然會相信?
- 他的這些罪名都是子虛烏有,完全是背後有人惡意抹黑。
- 如慰安婦是「被強制徵召」這樣的說法是子虛烏有,...
