This thing hasn't been tested in the field yet. If a woman is giving you her number a little unwillingly then try this. (Not when you have good rapport!)
After you have gotten her number look at it and do a little laugh. Then stare into her eyes.
"Hey, what a coincidence you got the exact same cell number as a friend of mine."
Continue to stare into her eyes. Like you want an explanation.
If she get surprised then it is probably a sign that she has given you the right number.
Say something like:
"Ohh, now I see, I reversed those two numbers. My mistake"
If she get angry and tries to excuse herself with a lame excuse then probably she has given you the wrong number. If you are really sure that it is a fake, then rip the paper in two and throw it away. Then leave.
Not that useful though, but if you really do catch a fake-number then the woman will think twice before trying it again.
