    Chabad Jewish Center of the Rockford Region

    When I recently spoke to Rabbi Rothman of the Chabad Jewish Center of the Rockford, IL, Region on…read morethe phone, he asked me dozens of questions about myself, but refused to answer any questions I put to him about himself. I had called him to donate some Jewish books to his center. He said he'd be glad to have them but that he'd only be willing to take them (a) if he could pick them up at the reception area of my hotel and (b) if I was not there when he arrived. I thought this was absolutely insane. He was, for no apparent reason, refusing to meet with me or to let me visit his center. In fact, he didn't seem to even have a center (despite his claim on the internet that he has one at 3661 Grenoble Ct, Rockford, IL, and that many activities occur there), for he said there were no Shabbos services taking place there and he wouldn't give out any information about other activities at his synagogue. In all likelihood, "Rabbi" Rothman of Rockford, IL is probably just a fraud pretending to run a center--after all, if he is running one, why can't a Jew visit it? I do not know why he would want to engage in this scam--perhaps he's fraudulently using his nonexistent "Jewish Community Center" website to get donations out of the Chabad organization or other Jews. I don't know this for a fact, however. I'd like to know more about Rabbi Rothman's center, but you won't get anything about it out of Rabbi Rothman himself--with him, everything is a big secret, including where he's from and what his Jewish activities are.
