Yes—they're pretty unlikely even in English (who really says "the wallet has been caused to fall by someone"??). I'm just regurgitating what Japanese textbooks say.
I really don't use てある very often. I prefer to use just the intransitiveている and passive forms. Glad that my instinctive avoidance of てある helps me avoid looking more like a fool than I already do!
