In recent times, social media has become the primary way people get news about what is happening in the world. Fake news surfaces on social media every day. Fake news on social media has harmed several domains, including politics, the economy, and health. Additionally, it has negatively affected society's stability. There are still certain limitations and challenges even though numerous studies have offered useful models for identifying fake news in social networks using many techniques. Moreover, the accuracy of detection models is still notably poor given we deal with a critical topic. Despite many review articles, most previously concentrated on certain and repeated sections of fake news detection models. For instance, the majority of reviews in this discipline only mentioned datasets or categorized them according to labels, content, and domain. Since the majority of detection models are built using a supervised learning method, it has not been investigated how the limitations of these datasets affect detection models. This review article highlights the most significant components of the fake news detection model and the main challenges it faces. Data augmentation, feature extraction, and data fusion are some of the approaches explored in this review to improve detection accuracy. Moreover, it discusses the most prominent techniques used in detection models and their main advantages and disadvantages. This review aims to help other researchers improve fake news detection models.
