The best thing to do is to perform a series of tests not just one. Find a fake pr checker, then also do the info operator, then check actual backlinks and you should see every thing tally including ( sometimes )domain age etc

… so in answer to musjoy’s post above – DON’T Do IT! your site will disappear from google if you redirect the googlebot to another site.

I’m sure your client would much rather be ranked #1 in the results pages with a low PR, than be nowhere in the SERPS but with a nice big green bar in the google toolbar.

If you own a domain with a fake PR, what you should do is remove any cloaked redirections and then get google to spider your site again – best way to do this is add a link on a PR3 or above page. If you have been penalised, then use the google webmaster tools to request a reconsideration: https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/reconsideration

Genius…

I recently got an email from a site which claims to have a PR of 7 requesting a link exchange with minimum PR3 pages. When I checked up on them I found them to be faking their PR…

but what happens to your real PR and backlinks in the meantime? If you do a 301 redirect for google, then all backlinks to your site will be counted towards the redirected page, rather than your site, so if you are trying to get good quality backlinks to your site by getting link exchanges with high PR sites, then you will not see the benefit until after the cloaked redirection is removed. Of course, you might try to sell the domain before you remove it, which is a criminal act of fraud if the person is buying the domain thinking it has a PR of 7, but if you are using the tactic to enhance your own SE rankings, its not going to work in the short term. If you remove the redirection, and the other sites linking to you don’t notice, then as long as you have not been banned from google, you might get a decent PR naturally after a while but it is a risk that you will get found out and thrown out of the SERPs. My advice is not to do it. If you want a decent PR, you have to spend the time doing manual directory submissions, quality link exchanges, article submissions, and all the other laborious, time consuming work that is link building.

is there any way to make fake PR back to valid PR? I have accidentally bought expired domains with fake PR.

The darkseo pages are no longer successful fakes, Google has caught up. Anyway it only takes a second to check for fake pagerank.

if our site have fake pr10 then can google show our site on the top of all sites according to keyword
if yes then what time duration means when google would have to know about this is fake
