Are there any legitimate brokers here, like myself, that are tired of the double-broker fake MCs out in Glendale CA? Would you like the full list of the MCs they are using, and a free tutorial on how to identify them? If so, DM me your company info and I will send you the list with tips on how to avoid being scammed. Your company info must include an email address that I can verify on Carrier 411.
How do we know you are a real broker and not the scammer? lol. There are several threads about this on here but here was my first experience with them back in 2018. Shady People and Double Brokering
Midwest Trucker is a GlendaIe Gang Hunting OG. I think you need to have assets to be able to DM people, we have both. Plus the mods are aware of what is going on and will support linking 2 or 3 folks on here to share info. My own personal experiences with the Glendale Gang in 2019 led me to research what was going out there and that OG thread from 2018 showed where the rabbit hole i needed to climb down was located. Ive been emailing with Joe about this for at least a year. We share info and have a laugh at their miserable attempts to quadruple broker our freight. I started posting on here when i realized that not only were they taking advantage of brokers posting on load boards but also the carriers who deliver the freight. My logic is that if we attack the Gang from the broker angle with Joes lists and also from the carrier angle on here/elsewhere by letting drivers know not book freight with the scammers, maybe we can win a few battles, save a few folks major headaches. We all work to hard doing this to have to deal with extra and unneeded garbage. Also like to add, i have had 3 threads deleted on here because the inevitable Glendale Gang scammer will see this post and start trolling it and using foul language. I made the mistake of trolling back, which the mods frown upon. When they do show up, dont engage, just ignore and notify a mod and the mod will cut off their access (words directly from a mod on here).
We quit even talking to any Glendale and most Fresno carriers years ago. Things you can do to cut it down: The normal safer/carrier411 Driver text a picture of the truck Customer verify the truck & MC# Picture of DL on the BOL's if giving an advance No advances
Problem is they now know that we know to avoid booking carriers from those areas due to the scamming, hence why they have started working out of Las Vegas and TX. Even had one MC# from NY that they purchased to use.
