There are no shortcuts or magic tells. You need to train your eyes.

1 - look at hundreds of authentic exemplars. Look at them every day for a long time.

2 - do side by side comparisons with known fakes

3 - don't focus solely on "shape." Look at speed and pressure. They are just as important.

4 - look for a loose relaxed hand that intuitively and instinctively signed versus a tight hand "drawing" the signature with too much "thinking"
