It's probably loosely based on an Al Capone type character. But it's not 100% about a certain person.

No The character in the movie "Scarface" was not based on one person. It was written by Oliver Stone. Al Pancio plays Tony Montana a Cuban immigrant who takes over a drug empire.
Al Capone AKA "Scarface" was from a whole different era whole different type of criminal.

Are you talking about Al Capone or the guy in the movie? Al Capone is definitely real but I don't know about the guy in the movie.

Al Capone was called Scarface.
Unless you're talking about "Scarf Ace", a little old lady who crochet's scarves every fall/winter & sells them on ebay.
