Hmmm. Good question.
The autographs were done with the knowledge of the person who is supposed to be signing, so it is still a proxy signature, BUT the entire situation is fraudulent. I think it could even be illegal as the card company is hoping to entice buyers to purchase packs to get an authentic autograph. If they
KNOW the auto isn't authentic, I would think that would be fraud and illegal.
If the card company paid a third party to sign a bunch of cards, without informing and getting the player's consent, those would be forgeries and also fraudulent and illegal.
