Companies associated with Mayfair’s IPO Wealth Fund should be wound up because they contained assets “artificially inflated” in value and ran what was effectively a Ponzi scheme, the Victoria Supreme Court has heard.
A judge has criticised “inflammatory” and misleading comments Mayfair 101’s director made to investors regarding attempts to wind up firms associated with the IPO Wealth investment scheme.
A court has appointed provisional liquidators to the IPO Wealth Group, rejecting claims by the firm’s sole director that the move would severely damage his reputation and that of the wider Mayfair group.
The embattled founder of Mayfair 101 investment group has denied allegations that its $80 million IPO Wealth fund is a failed Ponzi scheme as he fights the appointment of a provisional liquidator to the fund.
