Frivolous complaint

As in frivolous litigation.

I believe this is the correct term. Obviously inside the complaint there will be some false charges; depending on the context this doesn't need to be said explicitly.

false alarm

if you have something on the tip of your tongue this is probably it.
Example sentence:

Someone called to say there was a bomb inside the building, but it turned out to be a false alarm.

neutral Gad Kohenov : That's אזעקת שווא , as seen in Babylon - false alarm, siren that is set off at the wrong time or as a test
