FreightWaves recently unpacked how overusing the term “freight fraud” has blurred the lines between stolen freight, chameleon carriers and forged documents while leaving critical safety and compliance issues overlooked. Fraud often hides behind clean profiles and automated vetting exposing your fleet to unsafe operators and unnecessary risk. Without precise definitions and robust enforcement the wrong carriers end up on the road jeopardizing freight reputations and lives. Trimble’s fleet safety, compliance and risk management solutions are built to address these real threats by helping you identify risky operators, ensure regulatory compliance and maintain the highest safety standards across your network. Let’s move past buzzwords and protect what matters most.

Double brokering was in the spotlight on 60 Minutes — and it’s a real problem. Bad actors pretending to be brokers or carriers are re-brokering loads, creating chaos, fraud, and big financial losses. Unfortunately, some are now using this as a reason to bash brokers entirely — saying shippers should “just go straight to a carrier.” Here’s the truth: 🚫 Bad brokers cause problems. ✅ Good brokers prevent them. A quality freight broker brings real value — vetted carriers, fraud protection, visibility, and accountability. We deal with the headaches so your freight moves safely and efficiently. Going “direct” might sound simple, but when things go wrong — a missed pickup, a claim, or a fraudulent carrier — you’ll wish you had a trusted partner in your corner. Not all brokers are created equal. The right one protects your freight, your time, and your reputation. #FreightBroker #Logistics #Shipping #SupplyChain #Trucking #FreightFraud #DoubleBrokering

Cargo theft is blowing up and the DOT is finally paying attention. They just put out a request for information on Protecting America’s Supply Chain from Cargo Theft, calling out messy reporting, limited visibility, and carriers finding ways back into the system even after they’ve been banned. This isn’t your old “stolen trailer at a truck stop” problem anymore. It’s organized theft rings going after ports, intermodal hubs, and high-value lanes...and regulators are scrambling to catch up. Here’s how shippers can get ahead → https://lnkd.in/gTWxdaeP
