Ok, so can anyone give an example of what double-brokering actually is? Maybe it's not illegal but many contracts seem to forbid it in contract language.
Is this double brokering?

That happens when
1- a broker scrapes a load off a load board, books it as a carrier and then repost the load on the load board for cheaper or puts it up for bid.
2 - a broker ties up a load from another broker and posts it on a load board with little information about it. -

There's nothing illegal about double-brokering, but there could a civil complaint based on contractual language. My brokerage has a "sister fleet" and we are asked to repower fleet loads that fall out of schedule all the time, but those are all direct-customer/3PL loads that they agree to with the fleet. We don't rebroker a brokered load and won't broker to a broker - too much liability hassle and rates are crap
