The official death toll has fluctuated frequently since two hijacked passenger planes were flown into the 110-storey twin towers of the World Trade Centre at a time when tens of thousands were normally in the vicinity of the lower Manhattan complex.
Some of the 40 taken off the list were originally reported missing by people living overseas.
“Two or three are still being investigated, so those could still be removed in the future.
“Some people were duplication, some were alive and didn’t even know they had been reported missing; There are Other people who claimed people were missing who didn’t even exist,” she said.
Since the tragedy, it has been discovered some people invented the names of people to fraudulently claim compensation from the city.
New York police have arrested 40 people falsely claiming they lost loved ones.
