I really don't think it is Samantha. She's shite at coming up with new identities. Of course, that's not verification that she had a child at that age and Olivia is that child, but if not then I think it's more likely to be some random than Samantha herself.

I'm still leaning towards it being perfectly possible and being cautious. 18 might legally be an adult but at 30 they're still babies to me :ROFLMAO:
I don’t think it’s Samantha either. I think if it was her she’d be siding with her and painting her in a better light. This person does not like Samantha and and feels very much like Samantha has harmed her. She says a lot about being silenced and people denying her existence. That could be relevant.

I’ve said this all along - It’s not coming. No credible journalist would touch that story with the intention of publishing it.
I don’t know, you can get away with a lot using phrases like “is believed to be”, “allegedly, “according to a source” and “is thought to”.


Coincidently, an Irish journalist has just published an investigation piece into another Irish scammer which she said took months to put together.


I’m not sure tbh, but I’m not writing KD off yet

I’m hoping we get something in the form of disproving or proving what is truly going on soon. Airbnb are a big company and have received a fair amount of criticism about this and rightly so if it turns out to be true. If it’s not, I’m sure they will want to clear their name and speak out on it in due course

Anybody following the Autistic.etc drama? It’s giving similar energy to the Carrie/Sam situation. Many people doubting there’s anything wrong with her given the situation where she’s taken approx 30k or so from people and ghosted them. I don’t think there’s a page for her on Tattle yet.

I agree about Netflix. (Ironic if it does happen, given one of her lies was that she’d sold a script to Netflix).
I get the impression there is much more to come on this.

"the RTB has scheduled a “mediation” between Mr Hourigan and the fraudster, who filed her complaint under the name Jade Williams, for February 7."

She filed the complaint but she will never actually turn up for the mediation because surely someone can then tip off the gardai to her location (unless this "mediation" is online).

Also this part:

"“The neighbours are in fear as a result of what they are reading online about this woman,” Mr Hourigan said, adding that one neighbour has removed their small children and sent them to stay with another family member"

She must have done something else with the neighbours for them to be that spooked.

I ran here from TikTok. Her account there is gone, YouTube vids are now all private and her Insta is gone too. Intriguing…

I don't think people can dig any further!

Its getting messy again and there are so many sides to this. I want the people who were scammed financially and emotionally to have their say, some of them were promised so much and its not just them who have been let down but their children. People told their stories and Sam played on that which shouldn't be forgotten.

What has been uncovered on the back of all of this is unimaginable hurt and pain and a very complex story. I think it should maybe be left there until the people involved in that side wish to tell their story.

I feel Sam needs to be the centre of this because this has all been caused by her. what else has she cooked up (accidental pun)?

She is no longer on the Alzheimer's website, her website is down (I assume she stopped paying the subscription), her house was rented so she has probably left, there are still articles up about her tech etc but I think we can safely assume she isn't making any more money off people. I think 95% of people have got their money back. Reports have been made to Action Fraud who will work with Police if they think there is a case and I think people have notified Police anyway. Is it now a waiting game until the article comes out or Sam pops up somewhere else? did anything come back from the welfare check?

I'm not sure that person on Twitter will ever publish something on this story now. If she was just a general grifter then I'm sure journalists would jump on it but no one is going to want to write something up on someone with this level of mental illness and possible trauma (except maybe the shitty tabloids).

It's really odd how they don't seem to understand that it's gossip and speculation, mostly based on hypotheticals. Unless there are official records to verify (eg all Samantha's family, which they were happy to believe), nothing here is being treated as fact. We're not involved, we don't stand to gain or lose anything, we just like to watch a good shitshow unfold.
Excatly, I’m interested in the whole thing not just 1or2 points of it. I think the whole real story would be very interesting but I don’t think we’ll ever hear the entire story of sam’s life. The whole thing is a puzzle and we are on here having fun trying to solve it and throwing out mad ideas. I don’t think any of us have said we know this or that as facts🙄 and what some people are missing completely is some of us here might relate to parts of this story.

that’s super invasive, is that the standard for Ireland? I’ve not heard of that happening as standard in the uk unless youve been investigated and suspected of lying
def not the standard here, that poster either got very unlucky or someone was reporting her to the social welfare. We have one of the most generous benefits system and it’s really not that hard to get social housing if you’re willing to live anywhere in the country like the backside of nowhere like Carrie does.

Just as confused as you - to begin with it seemed like they might have some interesting stuff but now I haven’t got a clue 😂
very confusing 😂 glad I’m not the only one who can’t work out her clues for tattle 😂

The cousin seems legitimate to me. Some diehard Carrie fans in her comments🤔people are clearly invested in Carrie and her stories so it’ll be be tough for them if it turns out she’s not dying or disabled

I completely agree that she seems to be a portrayal of ASD.
It was my first thought when I saw her videos.
It doesn't surprise me others with ASD would find it insulting.

A couple of her clients said that she was nothing like she is now when she was a photographer and you wouldn't know she was autistic in the slightest, not even a hint.
As you said, masking is a thing, but if she is the way she is now, would she be able to mask that completely and come across completely neurotypical? 🤔
Exactly, the five star reviews she does have from that time all speak of how personable and funny she was and how easily she fit in with the large wedding parties she would shoot. Prior to being a wedding photographer she was a child/family photographer and a part time nanny, so she spent a lot of time with young children. I couldn’t imagine a worse job for someone with ASD than one working with and being responsible for kids.

she fact she calls anyone who questions or doubts her ‘ableist’ is disgusting, trying to weaponise her supposed conditions by silencing people (often those who actually do have the conditions she’s claiming to have) is gross.

Two things occurred to me- firstly she never gave her name. But when I believed her, I showed her vids to someone who knows the legal world.
She claimed not to have any/much money.
And claims she was being sued for €450,000. That’s a high court case. A private solicitor would probably look for €10,000 to take instructions and to defend the case would take anywhere from 10,000 up to 30/40/50,000z
Th ey would need to hire junior and senior counsel
So how could she pay them? And she implied she was talking to her solr daily- and the things he told her Appara are not things solicitors usually advise on . Just my take on ir

And also, I didn’t even know she had a website until i read it here, so I imagine a lot of people won’t even see that statement.
