Sam Smith has nothing to lose: you do.(2010) Amy Lee and Evanescence. At 32, he had an unhealthy obsession with the Christian nu metal band and (particularly) its lead singer. After a long and complicated Internet fued with underaged girls on their official fan forum, he was banned from the boards.
Sam Smith retaliated to this forum ban by accusing Evanescence of being predatory to children, and reached out to tabloids to publish the fictitious claims.(Source) As word spread, the band was hacked by international cyberterrorists on Smith's claims alone. (Source) (2) (3) (4) (5)
This prompted Evanescence to threaten Smith with legal action unless he signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement, which he is legally bound to this day. He has attempted to invalidate this contract, but failed. (Source) (2)
(2010 Onwards) Child fans of Evanescence. During the fallout of the Amy Lee fan forums, Samuel Smith was livid at the girls who moderated the forums. He began to stalk and harass one of its moderators who, at the time, was a minor. For the safety of the victims, only information already made public can be disclosed.
In 2016, one of these girls came out to speak on her abuse, but very quickly after, she was confronted by Smith in private.
The predatory abuser figured out which of his young female victims was talking about him was based on the details of her story. He threatened her with costly and emotionally draining litigation unless she immediately disappeared and stopped going public. The full extent of her abuse remains unknown due to Samuel's strength in terrorizing people. He has successfully covered up information about the long-lasting emotional damage she endured. (Source)
(2015) Randi Lee Harper. An outgoing feminist and video game critic, Harper had her business attacked by Smith at the height of the GamerGate Controversy, which she is heavily demonized in for her views. Samuel Smith spends many hours a week playing video games and attempted to embed himself in the controversy for personal gain.
Patreon, a crowdfunding service Randi used to finance her activities, was hacked. (Source) Samuel Smith used this leaked data to contact all of Randi's financial sponsors and smear her.
He personally emailed her patrons information about her early-life struggles with drug abuse. He dredged up painful, decades-old stories in an attempt to paint her as a child abuser and destroy her financial support and career prospects. His ire of Mrs. Harper seems to exclusively stem from this video game controversy, but he saw the opportunity as a way to make himself famous at her expense. He openly gloats about this attack and invasion of Harper's privacy on his blog. (Source)
(2016 Onwards) Joshua Conner Moon. Samuel Collingwood Smith's current obsession is a 23 year old forum host whose website features a thread on Smith's misdaventures. In an ongoing effort to remove this forum, Smith has dedicated the entire year and all of his resources to stalking and harassing him.
Smith hosts an entire wiki dedicated specifically to Joshua's family.(Source) Smith has spent money to buy the domain name joshuaconnermoon.com to better smear him.(Source) A quick Google search of Joshua's name on Samuel's blog turns up 378 instances (as of writing). (Source) Per Smith's modus operandi, Moon is accused of being a pedophile in every article that Smith writes about him, and writes the word "pedophile" on Joshua's pictures that he collects and republishes.
Despite being a member of Joshua's forum since 2014, Samuel only took issue with it after a thread about himself was made. He had asked forum users to publish an exposé on an anti-GamerGate Wikipedia editor Mark Bernstein that Smith himself had written on, (Source) probably in an attempt to gain more coverage for his blog. When forum users found Smith's history of harassment and abuse, they instead published an exposé on him, kicking off his most intense period of stalking that we know about.
Samuel openly brags in these dozen articles about harrassing Joshua's mother, his mother's employers, (Source) his aunt, his grandparents, extended members of his family, (Source) the forum's payment processor, (Source) local police, state police, federal police, (Source) website hosts, (Source) domain registrar, (Source) a friend, the friend's father, and the friend's brother. (Source)
After believing Joshua had finally cracked to the pressure that had been mounting for half a year, Samuel Collingwood Smith first gloated about the success of his terrorism on his blog,(Source) then contacted Joshua directly for the first time and attempted to extort him into taking the forum down. (Source)
Depsite this, the forum remains up and the thread Samuel Collingwood Smith has dedicated five years of his life to remove is here.
Between January 20th, 2017 and February 10th, Joshua Moon's website was taken offline with no intention of returning. Samuel Collingwood Smith had allegedly armed very dangerous people with the personal information of Moon's extended family. They aggressively stalked, defamed, and harassed everyone within three generations the web developer in order to accomplish what Sam had set out to do over a year ago by that point. Despite capitulating to demands, Sam could not put the reel in what he had unleashed, and after three weeks of continued attacks the site went back up out of defiance.(Source)
Sam has made claims without evidence that he burned a holy Qu'ran, apparently to incite radical Islamic violence against him and his family.(Source)
As of June 2020, Samuel Collingwood Smith is still making opportunistic attacks at the Kiwi Farms, and anything related to it.
(2016) Anonymous. Unnamed person claims that Samuel took issue with content hosted on their website. Samuel proceeded to find the names of their very young children and imply in private he would contact their elementary school and accuse them of being abused if offending site content was not removed immediately.
Once offending content was removed, Samuel dropped the issue. This is one of the few confirmed instances of abuse from Sam that did not receive a glowing blog entry on his site. Presumably, even he knew how horrible this was.
(2017) Redacted. A relative of a prior victim was photoshopped into porn and her business was disrupted by Samuel Collingwood Smith's domestic terrorism. He attempted to extort her, through proxies, into pressuring her relatives into removing information about him. She was eventually forced to hire a personal reputation solicitor in England and sue him at his home.
After this crushing defeat, he disappeared for years.
(2019) Esther Ruth Baker. Samuel Collingwood Smith is not a solicitor and never will be, but anybody is allowed to give legal advice in England & Wales. While acting as a so-called McKenzie Friend, a woman he had been stalking for months filed a complaint to the courts regarding his behavior.(Source) Sam used his extensive knowledge of the mangled British justice system to empower litigants to sue her. He brags about this openly on his site.(Source)
(2020) New Project 2. Charged into a manic hysteria by his recent victories, Samuel Collingwood Smith broke his years of silence on the Kiwi Farms. In a psychotic rant, he openly admits to interefering with third parties, brazenly attempts to extort New Project 2 into deplatforming a podcast, gloats about edging random women into financial ruin via the court system, namedrops British politicians as friends with whom he can get to do favors, drops emails from payment networks he claims to have strongarmed into doing what he wants, and makes his usual slew of defamatory statements - including new accusations of of criminal misconduct.(Source)
