‘Seduced by his personality': The fall of a finance fraudster
Investors say Linden Toll was 'charming' and 'charismatic'. The Sydney Grammar boy, law student and one-time Macquarie futures trader certainly looked the part. He owned houses in Bowral, the highlands district that's become 'Sydney's Hamptons', drove a $130,000 BMW, and favoured clothes from premium New Zealand label Rodd & Gunn.
Toll and his family holidayed in Maui and Byron Bay with his rugby league hero Gorden Tallis. A keen golfer, he also sat on the Bowral Golf Club board.
