As soon as I heard the accent I would have hung up It ended up being a great thing as you have a new connection Great catch!!! Hugs to the puppies and Lita ❤
Probably the best video on your channel. At least the most informative. If the shipper wasn't also the broker, nobody would've figured it out till it was too late.
Thank you for the video. Thank you for you and Lita reporting and also letting the customer know. The bright side you caught it. And the other bright side the customer has loads. See if you can get direct load off of him at your price. Good luck you too and be safe.
Talk about doing a company a solid deal! Great job on catching the scam and reporting it. Glad the shipper worked with you to get you loaded and rolling.
I been owner operator 30 yrs. Been with Land star 25 yrs. Yes they have double broker also. But I've learn long time ago if broker or agent Don t give me phone number where im picking up I Don t take load. Most my broker and agent i deal with give me customer number and before 8 except load i call that customer first and make sure it real deal and I call broker back to except load. Very simple. You will know 100% when you call that customer and give them your load # to verify and it done deal if not Don t chance it guys !!!!
Do you know if the US or these load boards let international people/companies broker loads? This is crazy.. we should only let US citizens and US companies with legit addresses be brokers.
I’m happy for you both for not picking up this load running it for the scam broker. I hope this customer can help you out with some loads in the future as he does sound like a great contact and he has some good loads paying nicely. I’m glad it worked out for you thanks to that trusty gut feeling. Safe travels my friends!
I started driving in the late 70s, and retired finally in 2010. I am glad that for the most part I was leased out to a very reliable company, still in business today, and they paid very well. I had no money complaints with the company I was leased out to for over 18 years. Glad y'all got that fiasco figured out before you were out a lot of $$$ for your time and fuel. Hopefully the folks you just hauled for can help you with loads in the future. This retired old driver is always glad to see your videos. Thank you very much for doing them. Not many flatbed drivers out there who do videos. Thanks again. Hug the poochies for me. I am retired ol ron.
Glad you caught it….other owner ops on TH-cam are having similar issues with multi brokering of the loads. On a lighter note….the look on Lita’s face when you said it’ll make a turd……PRICELESS….great and informative video you two….
It was good u caught that Robert before hauling that load. I don't know what u said to them, but someone was looking after u 2 man. Stay safe & God bless
I'm glad I'm not having to deal with the load boars right now, I've been hauling for the same broker for the last 3 yrs except for some last year when his loads dried up because the orders had dried up.
So glad you caught that scam nothing worst then not getting paid for your hard work. Need to send out the Storm Troopers to have a little chat with them. 🔨💪🏾
you will never find them its just like fulton county in atlanta there being ransomed for millions of dollars from some aholes on the interweb about folks personal enformation and it seems with all the technology the fbi has they cant even shut the scammers down or find them go figure
Hello Lita and Robert. I am really happy for you that you got this figured out. Perhaps checking out brokers would be a way to eliminate not getting paid for a load or extended time to get paid for a load. It's your business and you have the power. Have good days!
Finding the new direct shipper/broker made it a good day. Setting that aside, you can view this two ways. Either that the scammers are scum, or that you completed your due diligence about 4 hours after you should have. I'm guessing both. Better late than never on confirming who you're actually dealing with.
This load just solved your no loads problem, hey, silver lining! Better than making the ""no doors"" guy. You ever get the old MACK fixed yet? Another real world issue surmounted, thanks man!
my thoughts exactly if they can’t speak better English than that it is way too easy for them too say something they don’t mean to or for there too be a misunderstanding
We are having same problems in auto transport lots of brokers want you to text them so they can use Google translate they are all based out of India or eastern Europe
Good catch! If this guy needs drivers for his dump bodies etc. Haul his freight direct then use him or another broker to provide a back haul then rinse and repeat. That would give you a steady income and a starting point not too far from Valdosta. I also LOL when you give Lita the business. It's all in good fun and she's a good sport about it.
Check the fan relay, I think that was also an alert in the in the software, it would also cause fan not to come on and cause the rest of the alerts. You will figure it out when you start tracing it out what the problem is. as much stuff as you fix yourself, just another problem to be sorted out, just like the heater, APU, injectors, fuel prime, etc .etc.
Wow....it's hard enough for you two to make a living, and then run into this kind of crap.....glad you caught it when you did. Sounds like this is a good relationship for you to culture, two small businesses working together to get the job done.
Hay Robert check out the minimizer fenders that's what I have on my truck and I stand on them all the time and never had a problem and they don't crack like aluminum fenders
Looks like a direct contact will be a good thing to have. I would be making lots of calls to that company! Might turn out to be a really good opportunity
you deal with the Hindis the punjab's the East Indians you're going to deal with East Indian Punjabi problems.. you guys make a great team the part where you said to your wife we need to report this and she jumped right up ..she was on it
Same thing happened to me. They steal a legitimate company info the make fake rate con. It was a company i have been dealing with for years. I found out before it was to late. Called the guy getting the load he said don't worry ill pay you half of what the rate con said. So the piece was never loaded on my truck. I just ate the deadhead miles. But luke you said if you delivered never would have been paid
Exactly why I'm a company driver now. This industry is full of scammers and everyone makes $ on broker loads except the truck owner. Ridiculous.. U have picked up broker loads assigned to me through my company that are actually paying less than they are paying me to drive their truck. Sometimes you gotta liv
To this day, got my CDL in 2008. And I cannot figure out how they give out CDL‘s if you cannot read or speak English, I mean if you get pulled over by DOT how the hell they can understand you and they give you a pass, anyway stay safe out there and drive on👍
All I can say is thank f@ck in Australia we got rid of loading agents , brokers Indian call centres years ago and only deal with transport companies , factories and other consignees or consignors industries direct only .
Greed is a bottomless pit,which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.Are you on the Hamster wheel?
You guys dodged a bullet there and came out with a silver lining , it's just sad there are brokers out there pulling that crap , they sounded like russians to me . As always stay safe out there !
Good catch, your so much better to try and work with that carrier you got the load from. Cut the middle man, you guys would be so much better. So many scams with brokers. Put your salesman hat on and push the bullshit brokers to the side and sell you. You guy's are running with your own authority so you should be able to go directly to the shipper. Good video see you on the flip.
Wow, these scammers are going all out.. the gift card scamm is not enough... be careful I know and orderly that got scammed for 3500 on that email scam....
As soon as I heard the accent I would have hung up It ended up being a great thing as you have a new connection Great catch!!! Hugs to the puppies and Lita ❤
I'm a broker and you are correct in your assumption!!!
Please start demanding English only for us all
@@chuckyf-u2395 After all this is The Untied States where English is the primary spoken language. You want to live here learn our language.
Probably the best video on your channel. At least the most informative. If the shipper wasn't also the broker, nobody would've figured it out till it was too late.
Always trust your gut feeling Robert on anything.
Thank you for the video. Thank you for you and Lita reporting and also letting the customer know. The bright side you caught it. And the other bright side the customer has loads. See if you can get direct load off of him at your price. Good luck you too and be safe.
I am definitely going to share!! Thanks for letting everyone know.
As soon as that guy on the phone started talking I knew you were fucked. His brother works at my 7/11.
And the Hotels! They are all named Patel!
🤣🤣@@TheFalconJetDriver
Talk about doing a company a solid deal! Great job on catching the scam and reporting it. Glad the shipper worked with you to get you loaded and rolling.
Today you were blessed with a potential direct shipper. Look at the big picture here. It’s a learning experience that’s priceless ☘️
I been owner operator 30 yrs. Been with Land star 25 yrs. Yes they have double broker also. But I've learn long time ago if broker or agent Don t give me phone number where im picking up I Don t take load.

I sure am glad that you were able to find out before loading. You guys stay safe out there and keep on trucking. Prayers ❤.
I wish all companies would demand English speaking only, that would clean up so much in the industry
Do you know if the US or these load boards let international people/companies broker loads? This is crazy.. we should only let US citizens and US companies with legit addresses be brokers.
I’m happy for you both for not picking up this load running it for the scam broker.

Call the Federal Department of Transportation. { Federal DOT }
Row Machinery is a top shelf company, Robert. Great videos, keep them coming.
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one with that problem with a garment. I feel for your Robert.
I’m glad you found out and I hope they bust the sob
I am happy you caught that. I have been praying for you.
WOW...what a scam. Its amazing you caught onto it, good info for other drivers I would suspect!
Safe travels to you both and the Dawgs.
LOL, my 1st OTR load (after yrs of local driving) was a load of lumber to Haleyville, Al....circa 1988
It was good u caught that Robert before hauling that load. I don't know what u said to them, but someone was looking after u 2 man. Stay safe & God bless
I’m glad you guys were able to get it situated and now you have a direct contact!
I'm glad I'm not having to deal with the load boars right now, I've been hauling for the same broker for the last 3 yrs except for some last year when his loads dried up because the orders had dried up.

Wow …. Very interesting
Good catch Robert 👍
I am so Happy that you two figured out this Scam attempt! If Habebe answers the phone hang up! Good for you guys!😀🛫
"OK Garman".....and the entertainment begins......
Pull his freight for him with agreement contract. Dedicated customer
It was probably Rowe's direct freight. I think they make that stuff there in Haleyville.
We are having same problems in auto transport lots of brokers want you to text them so they can use Google translate they are all based out of India or eastern Europe
Listen to your premonition Robert. 😀🛫
Good catch! If this guy needs drivers for his dump bodies etc. Haul his freight direct then use him or another broker to provide a back haul then rinse and repeat. That would give you a steady income and a starting point not too far from Valdosta. I also LOL when you give Lita the business. It's all in good fun and she's a good sport about it.
He's not that smart ! ?
Good catch!
The shippers would of gotten scamed too. Glad you caught that
I had the same thing happen to me 2 weeks ago and I caught it before I left the shipper.
well good,looks like it turned out ok
Check the fan by the radiator, had the same problem. It was blowing the 40 fuse. It turned out to be a ground problem.
watch out for the flip flop crews!!!! lol .... good catch on your part though.
gd job robert ,
Check the fan relay, I think that was also an alert in the in the software, it would also cause fan not to come on and cause the rest of the alerts. You will figure it out when you start tracing it out what the problem is. as much stuff as you fix yourself, just another problem to be sorted out, just like the heater, APU, injectors, fuel prime, etc .etc.
Turned out to be a blessing in disguise 🥸😊
Nice catch
Wow....it's hard enough for you two to make a living, and then run into this kind of crap.....glad you caught it when you did. Sounds like this is a good relationship for you to culture, two small businesses working together to get the job done.

Hi Robert and Lita
looks like there all in on it
Same thing happened to me. They steal a legitimate company info the make fake rate con. It was a company i have been dealing with for years. I found out before it was to late. Called the guy getting the load he said don't worry ill pay you half of what the rate con said. So the piece was never loaded on my truck. I just ate the deadhead miles. But luke you said if you delivered never would have been paid
I HAVE HAD GOOD LUCK WITH THE PLASTIC MINIMIZER FENDERS.
Thank you for the new video
You need Lita's help more than you think!!
@@willydavid Thank you. I knew i didn't have it right.She's a big help for sure!
You have an awesome girl 💯
That’s why the market is F%%%ed up now.
You need to direct ship for this company. All you need to do is find a load to get you back.
I run in to that double brokering all the time
Exactly why I'm a company driver now. This industry is full of scammers and everyone makes $ on broker loads except the truck owner. Ridiculous.. U have picked up broker loads assigned to me through my company that are actually paying less than they are paying me to drive their truck. Sometimes you gotta liv
That’s still hilarious Lita’s reaction to driving that pos y’all delivered at riches bros auction 🤣🤣🤣
We have more in crocs than flip flops.
To this day, got my CDL in 2008. And I cannot figure out how they give out CDL‘s if you cannot read or speak English, I mean if you get pulled over by DOT how the hell they can understand you and they give you a pass, anyway stay safe out there and drive on👍
Well you might have a good connection for loads now .
If it wasnt already hard enough to find decent brokers, you come across BS likes this. Some times when it rains...it Pours! Great catch!
All I can say is thank f@ck in Australia we got rid of loading agents , brokers Indian call centres years ago and only deal with transport companies , factories and other consignees or consignors industries direct only .
SUCKS BUT IN THE END YOU MIGHT HAVE FOUND A GOOD LOYAL PRIVATE CUSTOMER. HOPE ALL GOES BETTER FOR YOU.
Install Lita a cup can holder
if its to good to be true it generally is
All it takes is a phone and a computer and Uncle Joe makes it easier. Hook up with the shipper there an do some rounds and see where it takes you.
can you go into a bit more detail how this double or tripling brokering works and how you get in trouble with it.
Dang you went right though where I live
Watching him run in the intro is so funny it like he never played a lick of sports in his life. 😂😂
I have a pinched nerve in my back. But would still put play you in any sport lol
@@SouthGeorgiahotshot yes
Greed is a bottomless pit,which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.Are you on the Hamster wheel?
You guys dodged a bullet there and came out with a silver lining , it's just sad there are brokers out there pulling that crap , they sounded like russians to me . As always stay safe out there !
It's possible
I WOULD SEE IF ROE WOULD JUST HIRE YOU AS A DIRECT CUSTOMER AND SEE IF YOU CAN GET YOUR OWN PRIVATE CONTRACT WITH THEM.
High pressure switch
Good catch, your so much better to try and work with that carrier you got the load from. Cut the middle man, you guys would be so much better. So many scams with brokers. Put your salesman hat on and push the bullshit brokers to the side and sell you. You guy's are running with your own authority so you should be able to go directly to the shipper. Good video see you on the flip.
