David Law David Law was a young straight - talking , dark - haired man who , with Angie Dean , ran the Jet Girl modelling agency . In October 1975 , Tricia Hopkins and Gail Potter answered an ad for a course the agency was running which was about to start . David and Angie conducted what seemed to be a fairly normal interview with the two girls ; in fact , David appeared to try to put them off by warning them about how much work they would have to put in while he and Angie disagreed on whether there would be room for them on the course at all , with David taking some persuading by Angie to take them on , although he did soon agree . He then took some photographs of the girls in bikinis , which was enough to have them swooning over him after the interview . The next day , Tricia and Gail returned with the other girls who ' d signed for the course to pay £20 , half the total fee . After a short pep - talk from David and Angie , the girls were told to return the next morning to start the course . Tricia and Gail were so excited that they returned to the studio later that day - only to find an empty lot being tended to by the building caretaker , as if the agency had never been there . The caretaker told them the agency had hurriedly packed up and left , leaving the girls penniless and feeling used . Whether the agency was a con from the beginning , or whether it had simply gone bust , Tricia and Gail could only wonder .
