unfoolable

Sees through deception

Unable to be deceived or tricked.

Someone unfoolable sees through lies, scams, and manipulation: She's unfoolable—don't even try to talk your way out of this.

The word implies sharp judgment or hard-won skepticism, though claiming to be unfoolable often invites someone to prove otherwise.
