It's all very weird she seems very calculated and knew what she was doing

It’s possible that she was Samantha Cookes and did some batshit things 10 years ago. But it could also be true that she had issues with an Airbnb user and has huntingtons. It’s not all or nothing.
yes agree with this. It doesn’t mean this didn’t happen. I also read the article which said this Samantha was spared jail because she lost a baby to cot death and wasn’t in the right state of mind. People do things and people do change. I’m worried this is becoming a witch hunt already with little evidence. Very confusing

I've just come searching for specifically this 😂

I looked at the articles and I don't think it even really looks like her? 🤔

But even if it was, it also doesn't mean what she's doing now is a scam.

People are saying it could be a smear campaign by the lobby group...
Who are the lobby group? I've never heard of it.

Everyone's also saying that she's clearly guilty because she's turned off her comments and deleted videos ect.
Tbh, I'd do the same if all of a sudden people were attacking me!
Guilty or not

I wouldn’t say it’s a witch hunt and all of the evidence I’ve seen checks out. I think people tend to forget that a scam isn’t always for monetary benefit… remember that Australian lady who lied about having a brain tumour for years on Instagram? Seems eerily similar to what we are seeing play out here. This woman is unstable and needs professional help

Maybe I’m naive but I can’t believe you’d call out a huge company like Airbnb (they were tagged a lot on twitter, and she said they watched her TikToks) if it was all fake? You’d be wary of them calling you out.

Surely Airbnb would be able to prove or disprove it if necessary

I’ve just found this?? Interesting, name age etc adds up?? Thoughts?
That makes sense, if she wanted it incorporated as a UK company she likely has an accountant in Belfast which is used as the company address.

Airbnb have the sense not to comment until the case has been investigated, unlike people who would believe a mad claim on a TikTok video with absolutely no supporting evidence.

Airbnb may not even know that this is happening if she is lying. She wouldnt have contacted them if it is fake (which I’m pretty sure it is!). They’re not necessarily going to see the original tiktoks as they weren’t tagged.

I suspect if they do know about it, it’s only since this has all happened in the last day or so.
How would she know if airbnb had seen her videos, unless they said they had? But then how do we know that she’s not lying as there’s been no proof of airbnb confirming they have seen them.
I guess we will see what happens, but if airbnb don’t make a statement over the next week, we probably won’t hear about it unless it goes to court.

With the guy who left the review saying that he was 15 minutes late and she cancelled the booking, the way I read it was that she has (due to the very low price she charges) a strict check in time and he had asked for it to be made significantly later which she accommodated, then he asked for it to be made later again, which she also accommodated and then he was still late which was the point she cancelled the booking? I don’t think that makes her a bad host, I can see why you wouldn’t want a male guest (or anyone) checking in late at night if you’re on your own (though she does mention a partner) and when you have a host greeting they do often ask you for a time of arrival to show you round etc.


With the French review it is odd, but again it’s basically their word against hers, they could just as easily of been lying.

I don’t know, I guess I feel like there must be some basis of truth in this, because if there isn’t the whole thing is batshit.

She did a reply video to someone who commented about Huntingtons being genetic and said the gene came from her dad who she never knew 🤷🏼‍♀️. All very strange-did she mention lobbying groups to cover herself in case she was exposed or is she telling the truth ?? NewForestSara on TikTok said she’s done her due diligence and can’t find anything that proves she’s the ladies in the articles. I’m staying on the fence for now lol, hopefully I don’t get splinters 😬

off topic but I really like new forest Sara. She’s no beg and has good info on employment etc.

I have no idea whether this current story is true or not, or at least partially true and maybe embellished, but I have had a fair amount of interaction with Carrie Jade Williams, or Jade, or thisworldcanbeaccessible and from that and my experience of her within writing communities she does has form for pretty scammy behaviour...

Yeah, the whole thing is batshit.

She lives in a beautiful town that is hard to get to - crappy public transport, and most tourists will go there on a driving tour of the Iveragh peninsula, with its mountains and cliffs and old roads that you cannot speed on, and places where you want to stop and take in the amazing views, and sometimes really bad weather, so you can't guarantee a strict arrival time.

She is batshit. She is a scammer. The whole town knows it. (I'm in the next county over) I am just staggered that people will take such an outrageous story at face value.

Same 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ve heard of stranger things happening and disabled people being bullied isn’t unusual.

Yeah, I can believe that - I was once driving round the burren in the west of Ireland and mist descended and we were unable to see even a metre in front of us. Scary.

So she is well known to be a scammer?

That’s sad, I hoped there was some truth to it because making something up to that level seemed so odd and sad. I started this thread to support her (naive, I know.) because it seemed so awful, I had no idea how quickly it was going to take a turn.

This woman knows that most people would want to help a disabled person being bullied, so she is pushing all the right buttons and she got fairly far with it. But people like me will immediately google for more information, and wonder why the local papers haven't mentioned it, or why there's absolutely no evidence in her video, just a story that makes no sense because no one would make it to a solicitor's office, never mind a court, with a claim that they are owed compensation because they had to interact with a disabled person. What is very clever of her is to rile people up enough to get them to shout down people looking for evidence, as happened on Irish social media.

Sorry if I was sharp, but Jesus this woman caused a row over here!

I think that people are correct that this woman went by Samantha Cookes in 2013 and is the same woman who went missing then. That photo definitely looks like her and it does mention Ireland.

What I'm not sure about is the surrogate scam. I can't tell if the photo is of her and the article says she was 23 in 2011, but then the Shrewsbury article says she was 24 in 2013. One of the journalists could just be wrong about the age, but I just think it's possible that there is another Samantha Cookes who committed the fraud.

She also could have a legitimate reason for wanting to change her name when she moved to Ireland that isn't related to scams (running from an abusive home etc).

I saw her videos about her AirBnB guests at the time she was posting them (a couple months back). I did think some of what she was saying was off at the time but I didn't think much of it beyond that. Her videos have popped up on my TikTok FYP a lot ever since, discussing the AirBnB thing but also just general videos about disability and her business. Most of the videos didn't have very high views at the time I saw them.

I don't think it's all been a "scam" in the typical way we see scams. She has been making videos a lot for months and not asked for money (other than her online shop but I doubt that got much sales). I do think she has probably lied about the AirBnB thing for attention. I don't want to assume she's also lying about having Huntingtons. She may have Huntingtons and made up this lie about AirBnB because of the depression that comes with a terminal diagnoses. Or, if she doesn't have Huntingtons I think she may have a mental disorder that's contributing to her behaviour.

I don't personally think someone trying to scam people would be stupid enough to lie about an AirBnB lawsuit that doesn't exist when they know AirBnB can just show the proof. I also don't think a scammer would play this much of a long game before asking for any money. I think she is probably mentally unwell and thrived on the attention of it all. I could be totally wrong, but either way the whole thing is very sad.

To be fair, there wasn’t really much to google before the name reveal, she was known only as Jade and like I said a few posts ago, stranger things have happened! I didn’t think it was a massive reach that someone might have been offended by a disability. However, yes, I’m sure if you live in the area and have friends in the area then it becomes a lot easier to cast a critical eye. I even put some of her inaccuracies (like the fact she said the guy arrived on his own and they said something else, I can’t remember the detail) down to her claiming she has early onset Alzheimer’s and struggles with details. I know it’s possibly naive but I guess I did just take it at face value.
