    Obviously works in any (but custom) modes.

    The easiest way (how I've done it) is to find a Camo equipment and just walk around and hunt down an enemy with a sniper of sorts since those are scoped weapons. Make sure not to run or your camo won't work. Almost never will an enemy spot you if you just walk around since the Camo is pretty good and hides you from the radar if you're not running around.

    Camos usually drop in Big Team Battle Slayer (is probably also the easiest mode to do this on) via random drop pods.

    EDIT:
    As J MoneyNJ973 has pointed out, an enemy zoomed in with a BR works as well. Hence Ranked may be a good alternative to try and get this achievement since you'll start out with a BR and without a radar.

    EDIT 2:
    Numerous comments mention that Spartans zoomed in with any weapon seem to count for this achievement.

    MangoFett10I have been trying for the longest time to get this and I have back smacked many people in ranked and tactical slayer and I just won't pop. I don't think it works with any weapon zoomed in because I have done it multiple times and still no cheevo. I am just unlucky?

    TolcI've unlocked it yesterday during a Tactical Slayer BR-only game, so yeah, you might be unlucky and the players you're back smacking just aren't zoomed in.
    It took me like 15 back smacks in this mode, so try again, you'll get it!

    To obtain a Back Smacked medal, you must give a melee hit in the back of an enemy. The achievement is unlocked if, at the same time, your opponent is aiming with a scoped weapon, such as the S7 Sniper, BR75 Combat Rifle or Tracker Rifle. Here is a video guide to help you.

    To get this Achievement you must “Back Smack” melee an enemy who is looking through a scoped weapon.

    An easy way to do this is in Tactical Slayer to sneak & melee at random because the motion tracker is disabled & enemies are always looking through their scopes “glowing”.
