First, look at the bottom of the page for instructions on how to investigate image scams using Google image search.
1. As a comment, tell the teacher if you learned how to use Google's image search to reveal image scams. Was it hard?
2. What new things did you learn?
3. In which media have you seen edited images?
4. Why do people want to edit their photos?
It's actually pretty easy to spot a photo scam.
Do the following:
Search picture from online news, which you want to explore further.
Right-click on the image and select “Copy Image URL”.
Open Google Image Search images.google.com and click the camera icon.
Press “Paste Image URL”.
Paste the URL you copied into the field.
Press "Search by image".
This is how you get visible different versions of the picture. When you examine the pictures, you will find out on all the sites it was published and when.
ATTENTION, watch out now!
If the photo was first published in 2010, it cannot be a real news photo of the events of 2018.
