Pakistani "dispatcher" trying to extort me

"Is that you, John Wayne? Is this me?"

 

Oh, I see we have a Joker over here.

 

Anyone can attempt to file a FreightGuard report, but that doesn’t mean it will automatically stick without scrutiny. False reports can be disputed, especially if you’ve never done business with them. Keep all screenshots and communication as proof.
I’d contact FMCSA, DAT, and Carrier411 (if applicable) right away and alert brokers you regularly work with about possible MC impersonation. Make sure your contact info in SAFER is accurate and locked down.

 

Phone scam operate by volume. Makes 1000’s of calls, for maybe one victim who pays
They not filing with Freightguard as there is no value in that call
