Is this REAL autograph?

Nope. The top of the A is too small compared to the bottom, the Y doesn't go far enough to the left (she does it like an underline), the U is all wrong, and the heart comes down too far in the middle.

Is that a small picture or was it just that a very big pen was used? o_O

No, you can tell just buy the A that it's fake. Ayu's does her's a lot longer and curvier

You're just too lovely.

99.9% of the autographs in circulation is fake. If you're planning to buy anything that's autographed, don't, because it will be fake. And anyway, the charm with an autograph is having the artist sign it for you, personally, not buying something that's already signed. The only possible real one would be the ball ones from concerts, but they're fakeable, too.

Ayumi's signatures can look very different, she got a lot of different A's, but anyway, consider everything you see as fake, easiest way.

Those are a few real ones belonging to Team Ayu staff members, taken by me:

"Safer" than the balls from the tours whould be the Polaroids from various magazines. Don´t think they are fakeable. Saw one or two of them on Yahoo.

There is a autograph going for sale on eBay right now, with 3 Ayumi signatures on a TUKA book. It's pretty expensive too, and the seller is trustworthy, I don't have a pic right now.

Hey,thank you for all repliers!
When I first saw it I'm willing to buy it because the start price is only NT$300,but now I won't because of the "y"~

Thanks for immel's pictures,I have figured that Delirium-Zer0 is right:
the Y doesn't go far enough to the left (she does it like an underline)

Thank you very much again for helping me avoid buying fake stuff! ^_^
