“It’s all false,” Scott told H-Metro when the newspaper enquired whether there was any truth to the social media claims.
The claims were made in a “fake” Scott Facebook account, which appeared to give the impression the businessman was boasting about realising his dreams of building a mansion that matched the one owned by the American businessman.
