Online sales are expected to grow by 12 percent this holiday season from last year. That means a lot of us will be shopping online over the next couple weeks.
But how do you know what you're buying online lives up to the promises? Turns out a lot of those online reviews we rely on are fake.
There are a few ways to spot a fake review.
First, Google a line in the review. If the same line is posted on another product review, it's fake.
If there are a high number of positive reviews posted in a short period of time, it's probably a fake review.
If the review is overly positive with no mention of anything wrong, it's most likely a member of the business pumping up their product.
And if the specific model number from the manufacturer is used specifically, it's a fake review.
Some online retailers are taking it upon themselves to make sure you know the customer leaving a review was an actual customer.
For example, Amazon.com now has the phrase "Amazon Verified Purchase" written underneath an online review.

High pressure cleared the skies for northern Ohio today.
Those same clear skies may allow for some fog to form overnight. We are in a tricky spot as far as the fog is concerned, since areas west of us dealt with very dense fog this morning. So, what is west will move east... but, wind will be the deciding factor for our fog. We are expecting a southerly breeze to develop overnight which should keep the fog from getting crazy. If, however, those breezes don't come in as expected (which happens), then dense fog is possible. I'll be keeping an eye on this tonight.
What is left of the fog will mix out Thanksgiving morning and we'll be enjoying sunshine once again. Highs are expected in the upper 50s to low 60s.
Then Friday...
A strong cold front will sweep through the area late Friday morning. That means rain is likely with gusty wind and temps in the upper 40s to start. Once that front goes through the mercury starts to drop and the rain will change over to lake effect snow for later Friday into Saturday. Some areas in the snowbelt could be measuring snow this weekend!
High pressure comes back to us on Sunday, which means more sunshine, but the temperatures will still be chilly. If you are going to Browns Stadium, you had better pack on the layers and bust out the long johns.
Monday into Tuesday and Wednesday we'll be feeling the effects of a storm system that will bring us rain and then snow. Still working on the details for that one, but stay tuned.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Tonight: Clear and cool. Areas of fog developing. Upper 30s/low 40s
Thursday...Thanksgiving Day: Early fog, then mostly sunny & mild. Upper 50s/near 60
Friday...Black Friday: Mostly cloudy with rain and falling temperatures. Windy. Rain may mix with and change to snow late Friday into Saturday. Upper 40s thru late AM...then falling
Saturday: Mostly cloudy with scattered lake effect snow showers. Colder and brisk. Mid/Upper 30s
Sunday: Partly cloudy to mostly sunny, breezy & cool. Near 40
Monday: Partly sunny. Slight shower chances late. Low 40s
Tuesday: Cloudy with rain showers. Upper 40s
Wednesday: Mostly cloudy with scattered snow showers. Mid/upper 30s

CLEVELAND -- This Thanksgiving, many retail giants are opening their doors to Black Friday shoppers earlier than ever before.
The lines are already forming outside many Best Buy stores in Northeast Ohio.
The electronics retailer will open at midnight, Thursday night, just like in 2011.
Other stores, like Target, Walmart, Sears and Toys R Us are starting the shopping rush at the time many families are sitting down for a turkey dinner.
Target will open at 9 p.m. Thanksgiving, three hours earlier than last year.
Toys R Us will open at 8 p.m. Thanksgiving, one hour earlier than last year.
Walmart will begin its Black Friday sales at 8 p.m. Thanksgiving, two hours earlier than last year.
Sears, which was closed last Thanksgiving, will open this year at 8 p.m.
The earlier times mean millions of employees will have to report to work on one of the last traditional holidays in America.
Some are so frustrated, they've started petitions on Change.org, gathering hundreds of thousands of signatures of people who want to "take back Thanksgiving."
Target issued a response to the petitions, saying that earlier hours are what customers want.
In 2011, four days of Black Friday shopping brought in $52.4 billion.
