Would it be a stretch to say that right here in Cincinnati, we have our very own little version of New York’s Bernie Madoff?
I’m referring to Roger Ach. Once again, there’s an allegation against him.
This time around, he’s being sued by a former business associate and friend (perhaps the “friend” part no longer applies) Chad Wick. Wick is stating that Ach never repaid a $50,000 loan from 1995. Click here to read about the allegation.
And this is the just the latest. We’ve written about Ach many times here. Click here to read the last one.
All these allegations: Is Ach really ripping people off right and left or is he simply misunderstood? I mean for the second time, his mansion in East Walnut Hills was put up for public auction because of lawsuits, and for the second time, Ach somehow got off the hook. Did he do this by clearing up a “misunderstanding?”
I’m playing around here, of course. I’m sure Ach saved his house yet again by doing something slippery. He’s not stupid—you have to give him that. He gets himself out of messes, but hopefully that’s coming to an end.
Those allegations—all that evidence is catching up with Ach. At this point, most sane people wouldn’t give him a nickel.
Unlike Madoff, who’s “allegations” finally caught up with him, Ach is still walking the streets in Cincinnati wearing his expensive suits. Madoff is now pacing around in his jail cell wearing his prison garb.

You must be kidding. Another post on this guy? Why are you beating this to death?
That was the problem with the Bernie Madoff scandal, people and the media just looked the other way.
Do a Google search on Ach. Where’s there is smoke, there is fire. If anyone invests with him, they are asking to be ripped off. I think the mask is off this guy.
I don’t think in this case that the media is looking the other way. The Business Courier has done reports on Ach and his dealings as well as the Enquirer. And then you got Hines and Gross who are constantly putting it in our faces. I’m not complaining. I think you’re doing what you need to do — your job.
No, you’re beating a dead horse and you know it.
DON’T BACK OFF ON REPORTING THIS. He takes from those who have money and those who don’t. He makes employees wait for paychecks and sometimes doesn’t pay them at all. You have to let people know this.
I agree with a lot of you here. The point has been made more than clear. It seems like there is a post on this guy every other week and reading about him certainly isn’t very entertaining. This blog is much better when it is funny.
Well, I enjoy news gossip about the locals. Give us more! Give us more!
Faith, it’s fun to come here and not know what to expect. Why would you want it to always be funny? There are plenty of other blogs that do that.
Now, Scully’s has closed. When will young professionals start supporting the things they wanted?
(Sorry to go off-topic)
RICK,
Weak drinks, expensive drinks, bad food, poor service.
Young professionals want better than Scully’s
Just a thought……maybe Roger Ach could take over Sully’s. The customer has to pay upfront for drinks, then Roger goes into hiding.
“The Media” can kiss my ass! Write about me,don’t write about me–it makes no F-ing difference. As long as I’ve got the protection of the Cincinnati PD you nobodies can just go on whining all you want.
I steal people’s money in broad daylight from my posh offices in the heart of this fine city. And I GET AWAY WITH IT.
In fact, I think I’ll change the name of my current internet fraud/scam. Instead of calling it Ourtown Media LLC. I’ll call it MyTown Media LLC! Cuz this is MY TOWN! Get it?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Ach ripped me off for a game I wrote for his crummy web biz.
Well – As I read through these I am not sure if I feel better or worse. Roger Ach conned me out of close to $100,000.00. He was so believable and trusting, (not so much was written about him on the internet at the time so I didn’t know what a scumbag he really was) – So, years later he is still ripping off people and getting away with it. There is only one reasonable explanation and it’s not that he is smart. He is mentally ill! – And how does he stay married? If my wife finds out I lied about what I was watching on TV last night she freaks out. His wife must also be a lunatic! I feel sorry for his kids! – What a Frekin embarrassment!
Roger Ach is a scum bag and needs to be in the lunatic asylum. He is mentally ill and fraud individual. search the web and you will know that he is a convicted felon and should not be allowed to mix with normal persons.
