According to the FAA they have a way to determine what is fake and not. Not sure how they do it but it could involve comparing the signal to an actual radar return.

As the density of receiver sites increases, it will likely be possible to use trilateration to identify broadcasts which are obviously bogus.

That would require broadcasting in restricted bands.
