Appreciate your opinions here. Everyone else I have spoken with says, "it says Beckett Witnessed and has the sticker so it's legitimate. Beckett would have turned off all of the stickers if there was an issue."

These are all April 2021 signings right after the new hologram was announced in March 2021, so close enough for plausible change over delay.  I noticed that Travis Kelce, not exactly popular for big money forging (until Taylor Swift) is mixed into the jerseys with the other more valuable autographs for many of the scam ebay sellers.  

There's also a number of ecrater stores, which all have very similar jerseys and autographs. One called Beckett Authentication https://beckettauthentication.myecrater.com/p/45674097/jersey-red-travis-kelce-hand

Then the suspect ebay sellers (Khazikstan sellers, listing shows Pennsylvania), all sell a similar signature style and jersey look. I've compiled a list of jerseys and screen shots.  Some have said ebay sellers just steal other people's photos. But this was 3 years ago.  It seems so prolific, and I'm not finding duplicate numbers yet but I just started watching.
Here are just a few examples (I have a much larger list).

A ton of others have already been deleted before I screenshot them.

Then there's the sticker duplicate I found with 2 different signatures and jerseys, so this is happening with witnessed BAS that are all still in the database. Not an ebay seller.

WH44213 https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1109752596839842 same sig as the questionable sellers

Finally, there is the jersey that I purchased from Ira Klein at Charityworks.  Mentioned in a 2012 post on here by what seemed to be a throwaway account. Reputation-wise, Ira would be considered reputable, and yet the jersey matches more of the scammer sites than others I also found from this batch. These jersey seem to be similar to the knockoff ebay jerseys versus the what I assume are genuine jerseys and signatures like the below:

Jersey look real??

Is what I'm thinking I'm seeing really happening, or is there a different explanation? I tried to believe it was photo shop, but why not just use the same BAS for everything. Why have different numbers for all these throwaway accounts??

Do I have a real signature here?
