(Reality)
1) Fictional
2) Imaginary
3) Fraudulent
4) Mistaken
(Fakery)
1) Sighting-- aliens, pink elephants, Elvis, etc.
2) Evidence-- Since anecdotes never become evidence, even in vast numbers, there is none.
3) Contact-- none known and proven to have occurred. The White House lawn is not that hard to find, so if there are aliens attempting contact, they are completely incompetent.
3) Abduction-- Also, none. To date, no one claiming abduction has sworn out a warrant for these person or persons unknown. Coincidentally, lying to the FBI is a good way to get sent to the pokey. One might logically conclude the "witnesses" know they are lying.

Or, on the less scrupulously skeptical side, see below:
----------------------------------
1) Sighting- An encounter with a UFO
2) Evidence- Where you can find clues that an alien/UFO has been to a place. Example: Crop Circles
3) Contact- When you meet an alien face to face or see them from afar.
3) Abduction- Is when some one is temporarily, or permanently, captured by an extraterrestrial being
There are actually nine types of contact with aliens called "close encounters."
