You literally can't tell until they write code. Having done hundreds of interviews, that's the clearest take away I have.

The candidates you're trying to avoid are really good at passing a phone screen since they have a lot of experience at it, constantly looking for jobs.

You literally can tell by asking a couple questions and letting them run on. You can smell bullshit over the phone pretty quickly.
