Hold a bottle of water in right hand.
Put a pencil behind your left ear
Hold a wadded up Walmart bag
Anyway at least a way to find out if they are truthful about looks at least .
If they dont respond then they are probably looking to deceive people.

The problem with that, is Google images can reproduce exactly what you ask the person to do. There are literally millions of images online, available to the public, to use for their own purpose. While it is a good suggestion, unfortunately, it's not a reliable method of finding out who the person really is. I think the only way to accomplish that, is to do a video chat with the person. But most internet trolls won't do that.

Thanks. Well, the internet isn't the most reliable place to meet people. What with all the news stories of victims of people they met online. Those are the worst case scenarios. At the very least, people lie online about themselves online; they post fake pictures, create a fictitious narrative about who they are, where they're from. If you really want to meet someone, I think the best way to do that is offline, in real life. I tried online dating and it was a disaster for me. I'll never do it again.
