What if I told you the biggest threat to your freight business might not be your competitors… but criminals hiding inside your own systems?

Last year alone, freight and transportation companies lost billions to cyber fraud and scams. From fake carrier setups to account takeovers, fraudsters are exploiting the complex, high-speed nature of freight logistics. And it’s working.

The freight industry is huge, connected, and, unfortunately, wide open to bad actors. Think about it: thousands of daily transactions, multiple intermediaries, fragmented data systems, and a constant pressure to move fast. All it takes is one compromised login or one spoofed carrier profile and a shipment worth millions can disappear.

In the $6M trucking scam case, criminals hijacked freight accounts, rerouted loads, and vanished without leaving a trace. It wasn’t just a financial loss, it destroyed trust between carriers, brokers, and customers.

The consequences are brutal for freight platform operators:

Lost revenue from stolen cargo and payments

Damaged customer relationships

Regulatory penalties for data breaches

Skyrocketing insurance costs

Freight fraud is no longer a rare event. It’s a persistent, evolving threat. The question is no longer “Will we be targeted?” but “How soon?”

At CrossClassify, we’ve built and battle-tested an AI-driven solution that detects and stops account takeover, account opening fraud, and suspicious device activity before damage is done. It’s built for the speed and complexity of modern freight operations.
