1. Physical signs: Liars may display involuntary physical reactions such as touching their face or looking away when they are being questioned. 
2. Verbal cues: A hesitant tone, inconsistencies in statements, use of filler words and repeated questions are all signs of deception. 
3. Body language: Watch out for crossed hands, eye contact and increased blinking.  
4. Timing: Be on the lookout for an irregular gap between the spoken words and the gestures made by the speaker. 
5. Other people’s reactions: If others around you seem suspicious or concerned about a person’s behavior, it can indicate deception as well.</p>

Signs that someone is lying include using filler words and phrases such as “uh,” “um,” and “like,” excessive blinking, body language such as touching the face or rubbing the back of the neck, consistent use of positive language despite lack of evidence or reason to be optimistic, changing stories or facts, contradictory statements, shifting their attention away from eye contact, incoherence in their responses and stuttering. In addition to physical cues, tone can also give away when someone is lying as fake sincerity or excitement tends to sound different than genuine emotion.
