Kia ora koutou e te whānau, and welcome to another accountability session for our favourite fraud.
Thanks to me for the new title, not hard to win a competition when you’re the only entrant! Almost as easy as being the friend of an influencer doing a massive giveaway!
You can find Simone’s wiki here, please read this if you are new:

Never forget folks, we are all here because Simone Anderson scammed hundreds of people who bought second hand clothing and other items from her Facebook group. She promised that ALL proceeds from sales would go to Women's Refuge, and Women's Refuge never received a cent of the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of sales over several years until she was called out by several influencers, including Makaia Carr and Pebbles Hooper.
In the settlement agreement with Makaia Carr it was revealed (through a statement that was signed off by Simone's lawyers) that not a single penny of money had been donated to any charity until AFTER Makaia Carr had challenged Simone. Even then, the donations (totaling around $20,000, not the hundreds of thousands that was collected from clothing sales over the years) were made in quick succession over a couple of days to a number of different charities.
Rather than owning up to her deception when challenged, Simone doubled down and tried to use the threat of legal action against Makaia and Pebbles in order to silence them. Rather than being honest and authentic with her followers, Simone continues to attempt to create a curated image of the "perfect" life as a woman and mother, which runs contrary to healthy ways of living. Her continued lies are damaging to followers who may compare their struggles with her seemingly frictionless life, and also damaging to her own character. She is now hopelessly compromised, and no brand that wants to be taken seriously should ever partner with her.
