Present perfect

Hi.

Is it correct to say:

1.) I have done bad things in the past.

2.) I have done bad things in my past.

3.) I have done bad things a while back.

4.) I have done bad things a while ago.

5.) I have done bad things 5 minutes ago.

When is it okay to use present perfect and not past tense in scenarios like these?


Thanks
