About the episode
Cargo theft isn’t just “cut the seal and run” anymore.
In this episode of HDT Talks Trucking, Deborah Lockridge talks with Scott Cornell of LogistIQ Insurance and the Transported Asset Protection Association about how cargo theft has changed, why strategic theft is surging, and how scammers use double brokering, identity theft, phishing, and GPS spoofing to get freight “willingly” handed over.
Scott breaks down what fleets, brokers, and frontline staff can do now, plus practical red flags to train your team to catch before a load disappears.
