See More... Friends of the broke oil “heir” say that he’s conned them out of money - and that when they ask for it back, he tells them to “go [bleep]” themselves or “borrows” money or art from another friend to pay them back.

Among the many people Davis is said to owe money to are:

* Carnegie Mellon heir Matthew Mellon. Sources said Davis not only got Mellon to pay an $80,000 bill at The Dorchester hotel in London, he stole an American Express card from him and rang up $110,000 in charges. Mellon has still not been paid, and an insider said he’ll refer the matter to AmEx’s fraud department if he’s not paid within the week. Mellon declined to comment.

* David Kur, a student. Davis rang up a $100,000 tab on Kur’s bookie account. When Kur asked for it back, Davis said, “[Bleep] you. I’m not going to pay. You want your money? Come get it.” Kur told Page Six, “The matter is still ongoing. He’s a very messed-up person. I wish I’d never met him.”

* Andy Valmorbida, an art dealer. Sources said Davis stole artworks from Valmorbida and rang up credit-card bills totaling $75,000. “He has a list of around 10 credit-card numbers he uses,” a source said. “None of them are his, and he uses them to fund his lifestyle.” Valmorbida couldn’t be reached for comment.

* Davis also owes money to the Beverly Hills Hotel (which declined to comment), pal Jared Najjar (who said, “He paid me back”), art collector Eugenio Lopez and fashion designer Max Azria.

One insider said, “Brandon is dangerous and out of control. We’re worried about him. People threaten to sue him but don’t because he starts crying and gets them to feel bad for him.” Davis didn’t return calls, but his mother, Nancy, a historic enabler, told us, “I can’t imagine anyone would lend money like that. These people are friends of his, and he doesn’t owe them anything.”
