ROCHESTER, N.Y. – The grimy details of a web of deceit unfurled as Timothy Siverd, 37, from Webster, NY, stood before U.S. District Judge Charles J. Siragusa and pleaded guilty to wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. These charges carry a daunting maximum penalty of 22 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicholas M. Testani revealed the sordid details, stating that between November 2022, and September 19, 2024, Siverd, the mastermind behind ROC Scrubby LLC, a cleaning services company, conned his clients out of hard-earned cash. He manipulated appointments on their booking software to hike up bills for services not rendered. With brazen disregard for the law, he used client credit card information to bilk them further.
But Siverd’s mischief was not contained within the four walls of ROC Scrubby; his reach extended while he was still on supervised release for another financial fraud scheme. His previous transgressions were no match for justice as he pleaded guilty in April 2024 to federal wire fraud, pending sentencing for that charge as well.
The investigation into Siverd’s deceptions was a joint effort by Homeland Security Investigations, led by Special Agent-in-Charge Erin Keegan, and the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office under Sheriff Todd Baxter’s direction. The duo worked tirelessly to unravel the complexities of this cunning con artist’s scheme.
Siverd’s next court appearance is scheduled for October 28, 2025, at 9:30 a.m., where he will face the full brunt of justice for his fraudulent activities.
The grimy truth behind ROC Scrubby LLC now lays bare, leaving the community with a stark reminder of the lengths some will go to profit from the unsuspecting public.
