You can just listen to the first minute of the video, then skip to 20:00 to hear another scam they are using to steal trailers. The whole thing is interesting but whatever.

"It's an inside job, these guys are brokering loads to you guys, then they're telling people what trailer you have and where you're going... and they can track your location because they're sending you the invite through the Amazon relay app".

Some of them are scamming under a dispatch company called "Wolves Way, Inc." and were running as a subsidiary under a valid dispatch company called "Liberty Commercial", which itself doesn't do a good job of vetting people who get loads from them.

Good. Stop ordering from the internet and take back retail.
