Q: How can I check the authenticity of an image online?

A: You can check the authenticity of an image online by doing a reverse image search using your mobile phone.

First, save the image you want to verify. Then go to images.google.com on your mobile browser..
Click the three-dot menu, select ‘Desktop site’, then click the camera icon, and upload the image.

If you have a Google Chrome browser, it is even easier: just hold your finger on the image until a pop-up menu appears and pick ‘Search with Google Lens’...
