September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attack/Victim legends

Due to the very large number of World Trade Center casualties and missing persons, Victim legends were a common form of September 11, Terrorist Attack urban legends. These were tales of victims who did not exist, spread by word-of-mouth and the Internet. Official sites, such as http://www.september11victims.com, contain accurate entries and are trusted content. Because Wikipedia, and many other websites allowed freely adding victims, there were no doubt many obvious fake entries. Fake victims added to these lists were often missing or surviving individuals of the attacks.
