There are many ways through which you can tell the difference. One of them is by rubbing them against your teeth; if the pearl feels smooth then it is most likely fake. Another way is to rub two pearls against each other, if they glide easily then they are fake, real pearls are not very smooth. One more method is to see if a pearl is perfect round shape it is fake, however, please note that some real pearls are perfectly round but are very rare.

How do you know if the freshwater pearls you buy are real?

If a pearl is deemed Freshwater pearl, chances are, it is real. Freshwater pearls are the most affordable pearls available. If the pearls are described as faux, shell pearls, imitation, or anything other than cultured Freshwaters, then they are fake. More and more vendors are popping up selling shell pearls. Pearls that are described as "shell pearls" are not real. They are made from a compound of ground up shell and are faux pearls.

How do you test pearls?

This sounds odd, but if you put them in your mouth, you will be able to immediately tell if they are real or not, a real pearl is much the same at a tooth, in natural smoothness, a fake pearl will feel either plasticy or too smooth.
