【Abstract】In the trend of the accelerated progression of communication network technology, the emergence of virtual communities (VCs), virtual societies (VSs), metaverse, and other technologies not only makes data access and sharing easier but also leads to the proliferation of fake news (FN). To effectively monitor and identify FN in VC, VS, and metaverse, and to create a safer virtual space, this work takes FN in VC, VS, and metaverse as objects. First, the content and display methods of FN are reviewed and explained, and it is understood that FN is mainly displayed by single-modal and multimodal representations. Second, the application scenarios in many important fields such as transportation are reviewed and analyzed, so as to further understand the impact and detection effect of FN in different scenarios. Finally, an intelligent outlook and summary analysis are carried out on the detection and information security of FN, which provides theoretical reference and new opportunities for the detection and identification of FN in the virtual cyberspace.
