Who Was Behind the Harassment of YouTube Moderator Lady Z?

In a calculated act of deception, YouTube moderator Lady Z found herself at the center of a malicious impersonation attempt—one designed not only to harass her but also to implicate Matt Taylor in the process. The question remains: who was behind it?
The Setup: A Cloned Lady Z Account.
The incident began during a Matt Taylor YouTube live stream, where an account impersonating Lady Z posted the following message:
“Hi Matt, I’m Darth Viper’s MOD. Could you join his panel please xx.”
At face value, it seemed like an innocent invitation. However, when Taylor later ended his stream and entered Darth Viper’s chatroom, it became clear that the Lady Z account had been a fake—a malicious clone used to deceive and manipulate.
The Attack: A Fake SOS Political Party Account
Later that night, while Taylor was completely unaware, another fake account emerged—this time cloning one of his old YouTube accounts, The SOS Political Party. This fraudulent account launched a vicious attack on Lady Z, posting disturbing threats:
“Lady Z, don’t fuck with me. You will regret it. Ask anyone in Brighton and they will tell you it’s not a good idea to mess with me. Last warning. I don’t mess get it. Don’t fuck with me. You’ll regret it. You don’t get to fuck with Matt Taylor and get away with it. I’m coming for you.”
The real Lady Z, clearly confused, responded:
“I never came to your channel.”
Her response highlights the absurdity of the situation—she had been dragged into a game of deception orchestrated by an unknown troll, someone deliberately using Matt Taylor’s name and image to spread fear and misinformation.
The Big Question: Who Did It?
Who would go to such lengths to impersonate both Lady Z and Matt Taylor, and why?
One key clue lies in the only person to publicly promote the incident—Trouser Mouse, aka Shelley James. The very next day, Mouse uploaded a video about the exchange, showcasing the harassment but conveniently failing to clarify that it wasn’t actually Matt Taylor who had sent the threats. Instead, Mouse reinforced the false narrative, furthering the deception.
If Mouse was not behind the fake accounts, then why was it so quick to amplify the lie?
A Pattern of Targeted Harassment.
This is not an isolated case. Cloning accounts and impersonating people is a classic tactic used by online trolls looking to cause confusion, ruin reputations, and stir up hostility between content creators. The fact that:
Both Lady Z and Matt Taylor were impersonated on the same night
The only person actively pushing the false narrative was Mouse
There was a clear effort to make it seem like Taylor was guilty
…all strongly suggest that the culprit had a very specific agenda.
The Real Crime.
Let’s be clear: Impersonation, identity theft, and online harassment are criminal acts. Someone created a fake Matt Taylor account, used his face, and deliberately sent threats under his name.
This is illegal—a blatant attempt at character assassination and online intimidation.
Conclusion: A Convenient Scapegoat.
If we follow the trail of breadcrumbs, it leads back to the person who benefited the most from the deception—Mouse.
By pushing the false narrative that Taylor was responsible for the harassment, Mouse achieved several things:
Deflected suspicion from the real culprit
Tried to frame Taylor as a threat to women
Fueled further division and conflict between YouTube creators
But here’s the reality: Matt Taylor didn’t send those messages. The question is—who did? And why was Mouse so eager to promote the lie?
It’s time to demand answers.
