What's the real cost of fraud, and how do we finally shut the door on the criminals exploiting the transportation industry? In this episode, Chris Burroughs breaks down how the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) is stepping up with a new fraud hotline that connects 2,000 members directly to the FBI, helping track patterns, tighten data collection, and speed up responses to cargo crime! We also dig into how organized crime takes advantage of weak FMCSA oversight, why boosting the broker bond matters, the push for enforcement under MAP-21, the role industry advocacy plays, why unregulated dispatch services are becoming a serious risk, the ongoing broker transparency debate, and the need for consistent standards across the board!
