I guess the only way is to compare the file sizes of similar photo settings to the faked photo file.... to REAL photos taken by the camera (that are still stored in memory).

Re compressing a jpg needn't result in a larger file - it depends on the compression setting used in the camera - extra fine, fine, standard, economy/basic, the amount of detail in the scene, the in camera sharpening settings etc etc ... and the compression setting used when recompression - PS has a scale of 12-1 which, using files off my 8mp 20D can result in a file anything from 5/6Mb down to 150k again depending on the level of detail etc
