Description: # Verify Tweet
        
        Fake tweet images can be generated using a preset meme template from websites like: [TweetGen](https://www.tweetgen.com/), [Prank Me Not](http://www.prankmenot.com/?twitter_tweet) and [Simitator](http://simitator.com/generator/twitter/tweet) . Verification of such tweets takes a manual work to find the user, scroll through their timeline and matching. A viral fake tweet image can prove crucial at a time.
        
        A fake tweet screenshot looks very convincing, misleading the general public. For example:
        
        |Tweet 1             |  Tweet 2 |
        |:-------------------------:|:-------------------------:|
        |![alt text](https://i.imgur.com/gG1RYiR.png "Tweet 1") | ![alt text](https://i.imgur.com/eTKpOFY.png "Tweet 2")|
        
        Verify Tweet attempts to resolve the problem by letting users upload such tweet screenshots and verify if the user actually tweeted or not. A combination of Image processing, Natural language processing as well as Twitter Search API makes this possible.
