Securing the Load: How Technology Partnerships Are Changing Freight Fraud

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, hosts Scott Luton and Kim Reuter welcome Kary Jablonski, Vice President of Trucker Tools and Broker Growth, for an in-depth conversation on how freight brokers can combat the rising threat of freight fraud. Kary breaks down the most common types of fraud—double brokering, cargo theft, and identity spoofing—and explains how evolving tech tactics are making these threats harder to detect and more damaging than ever. She also shares how DAT’s acquisition of Trucker Tools is enhancing brokers’ ability to secure loads, vet carriers, and monitor activity in real time with a robust fraud prevention toolkit.

Together, they explore how modern brokerages can move from reactive firefighting to proactive prevention using data, visibility, and strong technology partnerships. Kary emphasizes the importance of building trusted carrier networks, continuously monitoring for red flags, and leveraging tools like ELD tracking and real-time fraud alerts to reduce risk.

 

This episode is hosted by Scott Luton and Kim Reuter, and produced by Trisha Cordes, Joshua Miranda, and Amanda Luton.
