Using CIA Spy Skills To Stop Freight Fraud (with Ryan Joyce) | Episode 318
Manage episode 516883144 series 3524041
Ryan Joyce, former CIA spy, now applies CIA-level tradecraft to protect brokers, carriers, and shippers from modern freight scams.
The key lesson: safety isn’t security. Perfect inspections won’t stop a stolen load, and fake digital vetting is easy to spoof. What works is physical truth. genlogs built a network of roadside sensors tracking millions of trucks daily—verifying who’s really on the road, where, and with what equipment. When that footprint’s missing, fraud risk spikes.
Pair that with one classic spy move—call a historical, verified number when something feels off—and even sophisticated scams crumble. The same intelligence that exposes fraud also boosts profits: knowing which carriers are real, nearby, and active slashes deadhead and tightens shipper alignment.
This episode is your blueprint for using spy skills to outsmart freight fraud and grow safer, stronger networks. Subscribe, share, and tell us the tactic you’ll try first.
