Freckles can be black. Moles aren't always raised.
You can do some research with the links below or see your doctor if you are concerned

I think that some moles are the kind that are raised from the skin but there are also moles that are flush with the skin that are dark. I could be wrong but I've heard them both referred to as moles. Freckles are usually smaller and vary in color. I think?

Freckles are never black. Moles are not always off the skin either. They can be sort of flat also when on the face they are referred to as "beauty marks". But if they are a deep black then it could also be a sign of skin cancer. I would suggest going to the dermatologist.

I have one on my back. Its a freckle, moles are raised off the skin. If you are worried about it then go see a doctor and have them check it out.

i think you should ask a dermatologist for those becuase they may be not what you think they are.
