Just a casual observation about those and Pacino in general - I don't think you can typically 100% conclusively authenticate Pacino's modern day scribble on the basis of the "signature" alone. Most of what I see, authentic or not, bears no resemblance to a signature of any sort. My recommendation is to avoid Pacino altogether unless you're purchasing a vintage or unusually full example. If you have to have one of his scribbles though, my best advice would be to only buy moderately priced items from the most rock solid in-person collectors you can. Photo or video exact proof would be a plus.
One other note, in the event that anyone is able to offer an insight on the examples here, it's probably better to include scans if possible. In a couple of those images, I can't see the autograph at all.

Dalton,
Pacino has had private signings the last few years where you can get rock-solid, nice autographs. I would look for those or other fuller, identifiable Pacino signatures.
Of the autographs you posted, several look to me like they could have been signed by Pacino. But they also could have been signed by a forger with an idea of how Pacino signs a quick scribble. I would avoid them.

Ill have to look for something a little more clear. They look okay but its a scribble not a signature

Dalton. if you are interested I am selling a nice large picture of Al Pacino with photo proof of him signing it at a private signing session,

Mark,
Do you have an image of Pacino signing the exact photo you're offering? The proof image you uploaded is a different photo being signed in silver Sharpie, not black.

Steve, I got hold of this through a very trusted source who meet Al for a private signing session in London I will try get more details on this events give me a couple of days

Thanks, Mark. The signature on the proof photo looks close to the signature you posted, and both look like Pacino to me. But when someone posts a proof photo, it's best for collectors to learn to look carefully and ask questions. As you know, so many are scams.

Steve, no argument on that fact. I have said on many occasions on this site..please don't always trust photographic proof, however my mistake bud, didn't go into any details regarding this item, this I will follow up on as l have sent a email to the dealer/friend and I am sure they will get back to me today regarding all the facts on how..when..this item was signed, this item came from a very trusted source who is a full member of the UACC & AFTAL the point you are making and my respect to you on spotting the ink this l didn't see, because l trust this seller implicitly. and l still stand by this good morale company. and I will also say this is as good as signature you'll get from Al Pacino today

You look at the "Proof Photos" you provided and the photo that's up close, the area where the "Proof Photos" show the signature in the "dark area above" where as yours though it's signed in the "light area below that". Therefore those Proof Photos don't tell me anything.

The "proof photo" doesn't show anything but a rather different signature. I tried best I could do undistort the sig in the photo:
