Webster man awaiting sentencing on fraud charge pleads guilty to new federal charges

ROCHESTER, N.Y.-U.S. Attorney Michael DiGiacomo announced today that Timothy Siverd, 37, of Webster, NY, pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Charles J. Siragusa to wire fraud and aggravated identity theft, which carry a maximum penalty of 22 years in prison and a $250,00 fine.  

Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicholas M. Testani, who is handling the case, stated thatbetween November 2022, and September 19, 2024, Siverd operated and controlled ROC Scrubby LLC, a residential and commercial cleaning services company. During that time, Siverd overbilled ROC Scrubby clients for cleaning services that were not performed. He would manually change appointments on ROC Scrubby’s booking software without client permission to increase the amount each client would be billed, however employees would not perform the more expensive services. He used, without lawful authority, client credit card numbers to overbill his clients.

Siverd committed this offense while on supervised release for another financial fraud scheme. In April 2024, he pleaded guilty to federal wire fraud for his involvement in the separate scheme and is awaiting sentencing on that charge. 

The plea is the result of an investigation by Homeland Security Investigations, under the direction of Special Agent-in-Charge Erin Keegan and the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, under the direction of Sheriff Todd Baxter. 

Sentencing is scheduled for October 28, 2025, at 9:30 a.m. before Judge Siragusa.
