Is it realistic for a bankruptcy trustee to come after employees that signed uo for a personal loan for shares in a company now worth zero.

Is there a documented case of this happening and suceeding?

In that Twitter thread where the CEO originally announced the idea many people reported this happened in the dot-com bust. Private equity firms would buy the company and go after past employees for the loaned money.
