How to tell if a pic is "fake"

There are two reliable tools to use:

If using Google Chrome just right click on an image, or Android just tap and hold the image; and an option to "Search Google for this image" will pop up.

The other is to install an app called TinEye. This can be a plug-in to Firefox for example; and will allow you to perform a similar Reverse Image Search

Be aware though, that some images are genuine but have been ripped off and posted unscrupulously

It'll give you the url (Web address) of any other images which are visually the same or similar.

Even if a photo has been cropped or turned B&W, for example, it'll still find them

Maybe a certain Tory MP should have done this

It's just the term used

To go back and search elsewhere on the Web for a picture

Generally if it appears too good to be true, it generally is

Reverse search is only any good if similar images have been processed by the spiders. Alter or manipulate the image enough and it may return a false positive. Well that's my guess anyway

US two prong plugs are a give away
