SESSION 4: BOGUS TRANSPORT OPERATORS – UNDERSTANDING THE THREAT


Speaker: Andy Griffiths, Lead of the TAPA EMEA Fake Carrier Intelligence Group


Compounded by EU driver shortages and reductions in available truck capacity, the threat to supply chains posed by fraudulent transport companies has never been greater. This session examines the impact of bogus transport operators in the EMEA region and the methodology behind these crimes. It will also discuss the challenges faced by investigators, the importance of


effective carrier due diligence checks, and taking a collaborative approach to fake carrier investigations.


To highlight this important topic, like-minded industry peers have come together to create the Fake Carrier Intelligence Group. Supported by TAPA EMEA, this special interest group enjoys a growing membership of transport partners, manufacturers, insurers, representatives from law enforcement and other partner agencies. The presentation will outline the group’s aims, objectives and benefits of membership.
