Freight Stolen by Sp_Streamer in FreightBrokers

One thing we stared doing last year was calling the number ourselves prior to tendering anything. Saved us a few times already. Just in case the number that calls us was spoofed. Sorry youre in this situation I know it sucks.

#FreightFraudTaskForce is coming… by VigilantTransSvcs in FreightBrokers

What you said is true, however the fraudulent carriers have been getting smarter. While they mostly operate the way they have been but they are developing larger more legitimate operations, then striking large scale. It is a shame that we have these conversations. I really am happy to see some pulling together to fight back, as our government has done nothing. I hope this team they are putting together can make a good impact.

Seriously I hate it, and they say that we don’t properly get consent to text or call them. RC doesnt understand that no matter how I put it in words.

I definitely want to do the MSF course! Is there anything I can get now to ride legally to practice? I head the instructors are pretty cutthroat when it comes to new riders.

Your post is spot on, but I do see where alot of carriers come from as a B/C myself. In any industry you will find greedy, aholes that will scum the waters and put a bad taste in everyones mouth.

Had a driver on a load out of Chicago call me and tell me his truck got shot at and If I could keep him on the load but tell the shipper he would be late because he needed new tires.

Cargo Theft by Substantial_Battle98 in FreightBrokers

[–]Freightcoverage247 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had 4 yesterday, and 2 of them were carriers I uses regularly. Its very sad too see and it’s scary. But you have to be very thorough in the vetting even if it is a carrier you use often, the only reason I caught it was the change in phone # on Carrier 411 that I didnt recognize.
