Another shipment gone. Another fake driver.

Fraud in logistics is skyrocketing and it’s not just about phishing emails anymore. It’s people showing up at the dock with fake IDs, forged documents, and stolen MC numbers.

That’s why more shipping companies are putting identity checks front and center.

FraudFighter ID helps you confirm:
✔️ Is this ID real?
✔️ Does this person match the photo?
✔️ Are they actually authorized to pick up the load?

It’s fast. It’s accurate. And it stops fraud before it rolls away with your freight.

Attempted Cadillac Heist Using Stolen Identity – Stopped in Vero Beach!

On June 19, a Fort Lauderdale man tried pulling off a slick fraud scheme at Linus Cadillac in Vero Beach. He used stolen ID to order a brand-new Cadillac, to be delivered to a Fort Pierce hotel. Deputies identified him (Philippe Canell, 40), set up a sting, and nabbed him in the hotel lobby on June 20—fake ID in hand.

When searched, he was found with over 50 fake IDs, passports, Social Security cards, stolen checks, and mail. Deputies say it's part of a “widespread identity theft operation.”

Pending charges include:

- Fraudulent impersonation
- Using forged/stolen driver’s licenses
- Grand theft over $20,000
- Unlawful use of communications devices
