Samwise the incompetent spy
The conspiracy of Merry, Pippin, Fredegar Bolger, and Sam was formed to keep an eye on Frodo and to assist him when he ultimately left the Shire. Merry had known about Bilbo's ring for years, and had even seen the Red Book.
Sam was identified as the chief investigator and spy for the conspiracy, and the source of much of their information. However, he is said to have "regarded himself as on parole" after being caught by Gandalf and ceased sharing information. But... Sam was caught during the very conversation in which Gandalf identified the Ring. What information could he have given to the conspiracy?
