HOW TO SPOT A LIAR:

1. Observe the pauses.

- Pay attention to the pauses. They might be taking


their time to think about what to say, it could be a
possibility that they are lying.

- Just this one cannot mean, the other person is lying.

- Speech errors like "ah," "uhh," and "I mean" also


count.
2. Notice the span of Emotions.

- Real emotions last only for around 5 seconds.

- If someone is expressing emotion for more than 5


seconds, it could be fake.

- Ideally, it is tough to hold on to a facial expression for


a longer time.

3. Notice the order of words and emotions.

- Emotions come first and words come next.

- If someone first says "I'm angry," and only then can


you see an angry facial expression, it is definitely fake
one.
4. Notice the sincerity of emotions.

- We can call the emotions are sincere when more


than one part of the face that changes.

- If a person smiles sincerely, wrinkles appear near the


eyes and the eyebrows will automatically go
downward, along with just the lips smiling.

5. Notice how frequently they are repeating the same


thing.

- When someone is constantly repeating something, it


could mean that they're trying to convince both you
and they want to know your reaction if you believe
what they're saying

- This could be a good sign to spot a liar


6. Notice the answer.

- Are they answering with the same words or phrases


that were used in the question? shoot more questions
and see how they answer.

- They might be too scared to reveal something they


dont want to.

- The choice of words also says a lot.

7. Covering the face or mouth.

- A very common sign you unconsciously tend to do


when you are trying to watch yourself without telling
what you are thinking

- Notice the same in others

- One of the easiest body language signs to notice is


when a liar covers their face or mouth
8. Observe the small details.

- Are they able to tell if you ask them something in


detail?

- Way too many details or not being able to tell too


many details are also signs that they might lying.

- Ask more follow up questions, get into detail.

9. Change the perspective of the person.

- If you want someone to tell more detail about


something, change their perspective.

- Ask them to think about the events from the


perspective of someone else like "what would a police
officer/lawyer have seen if they were there".
10. Notice their body language

- Are they scratching their face/nose?

- Due to the nervousness (occurs while telling a lie),


which causes a rush of blood to the face, leading to
mild itching.

- They fold their arms. They avoid eye contact or do


too much eye contact.
