The collapse of a tech company has revealed a scarcely credible tale of celebrity backers, distraught investors, fake reviews, and claims of threats to drown its former chief executive in the moors outside Manchester.
At the heart of this lies Louis-James Davis, the 35-year-old founder of VST Enterprises Limited, which claimed to have “the potential to revolutionise financial transactions on the internet”.
Among the celebrities who endorsed it are Zara and Mike Tindall who were signed up as ambassadors for one of the company’s key products, the digital “V-Health Passport”.
