Breaking Down Fraudulent Double Brokering

The Intermodal Logistics Podcast

Fraudulent double brokering - also known as freight broker fraud - is an illegal practice that's unfortunately on the rise. And it's potentially costing the industry hundreds of millions of dollars each year.
The Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) is on the frontlines of the battle against this criminal behavior, and TIA President & CEO Anne Reinke joins us to discuss what members are seeing and what they're doing to fight back.
Anne explains exactly what double brokering is, ways the crime is perpetuated, why fraudulent brokers aren't going to jail and offers tips for shippers and logistics pros to avoid becoming a victim when booking their next load. Plus, she offers an update on the proposed Motor Carrier Safety Selection Standard Act, which would provide some relief at the federal level. And Anne and InTek President Shelli Austin recap the recent TIA conference.
