Fraud Girl Season 2 Episode 8: Layered Protection For Shippers

Описание: Cargo theft is now a $735 Million Dollar + problem in the United States, and most freight is stolen before it’s even picked up. In this episode of Fraud Girl Friday, Danielle sits down with Bart Schulman, Chief Commercial Officer at Vectura Risk Management, to break down what’s really happening in the cargo theft crisis — and what shippers can do to protect themselves.
From false BOL fraud and red zone stops to organized crime rings and high-value AI server shipments, this conversation dives into the real risks facing today’s supply chain. Bart explains why cargo theft costs far more than the insurance payout — impacting brand reputation, customer trust, retail pricing, and even national security. When a load disappears, it’s not just lost product — it’s lost sales, damaged brand equity, increased insurance premiums, and long-term exposure to repeat targeting.
We unpack the layered security approach that’s helping shippers reduce losses: carrier verification, GPS integration, real-time monitoring teams, exception-based alert management, law enforcement partnerships, and even physical cargo escorts. The key theme? Prevention beats reaction. Technology alone isn’t enough — culture, education, and process discipline from dock workers to executives make the difference.
Shippers this one is for you, learn how to layer up your protection and make your company a fortress.
