Frank Gore Jr says Topps is using fake autos of him

Grid · 06-04-2025, 12:41 PM

FGJR's Panini autos certainly dont look anything like his Topps ones

Social Media started making fun of Gore's signature. So his teammate asked him about it on TikTok. Which Gore claimed those autos were fake.

Lawsuit?

Grid · 06-04-2025, 12:44 PM

His Sage autos dont seem much better than the Topps ones

And his Leaf ones seem right im between the junk Topps and good Panini

Grid · 06-04-2025, 12:46 PM

And these look nothing like any of the others. Who knows whats going on. But Gore stating those are fake, is a bad look for Topps / Fanatics

He's about to be paid a visit from a few men in trench coats representing toppnatics

As if the hobby doesn't have enough negatives. Ugh. Hate stuff like this.

Who the hell is collecting Frank Gore Jr. autos?

Bosoxfan5990 · 06-04-2025, 01:41 PM

I wonder if his dad signed the FGJ ones.

Bosoxfan5990 · 06-04-2025, 01:41 PM

Would it technically be against the contract if his dad did sign some? After all, they're both Frank Gore.

I didn't even have to click the link to know it had to be FCG. Dude is the King of Pooper Scooper players. I guess if you buy up enough turds, one of them might turn to gold.

same guy?

There are a lot more players out there having family and friends sign all or portions of their stickers/cards than you'd like to believe.

For sure. But how many of them are taking to their teams social media platforms. To tell the world those are fakes?

49erRCCollector · 06-04-2025, 03:53 PM

Two things:

1) I read Frank Gore and got excited... then less so when I saw the "Jr."
2) Is Gore Jr. saying that he knows they are fake and didn't come from him or they are fake and DID come from him?

This is tiny potatoes compared to the rest of the negatives

Devonta freeman was the same. So many different autos. Of course their friends and family help. Dak’s buddy did the autopen thing. Just another bad thing in the hobby. Anything left that’s good in the “hobby”?

I mean, I don’t think he’s going to just come out and say that he had someone signing for him. It’s deflection.

Those autos look wildly different, I think he'd know if it was his auto or not, but I get your point, what is the source of the fakes if they are? He clearly is not happy about it and buyers should be upset too
