    Inland Academy: Fighting Fraud and Cargo Theft

    An unprecedented cargo crime spree is costing US companies hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars, as thieves and criminal gangs become increasingly skilled at fraud as well as physical theft. Identity theft and fraudulent pickups have become commonplace, as well as traditional smash-and-grab trailer break-ins at truck stops and warehouses. This session will discuss:

    • Various ways shippers, brokers and carriers can proactively protect themselves.

    • Strategic planning and supply-chain design that deters crime.

    • Protecting information as well as goods from thieves.

    • Tactical, on-the-ground means of deterring theft and detecting fraud.
