Chelsea Piers claims worker used phony invoices to skim $80K — and it wants the money and his salary back

A former Chelsea Piers worker should pay back his entire salary and another $80,000 he pocketed for him and his girlfriend by using phony invoices, a new lawsuit claimed.

The massive sports and athletic facility, known for its iconic 28-acre spot spanning several Hudson River piers, is suing ex-employee Gregory Rodriguez to pay back the allegedly stolen money — as well as another $208,000 he was paid in wages due to his “disloyalty and fraud,” the suit said.

Rodriguez, along with his partner, Larieny Fernandez, “commenced an unlawful scheme and blatant self-dealing” amounting to “civil conspiracy” throughout his 14-months of employment, the suit reads, netting the couple a cool $79,397.
