    Freight Broker Training Scam?

    Freight Broker Training Scam?

    A subscriber contacted us last week with a question. Should they be paying a freight broker, introduced through a job fair organized by their freight broker training organization, to work as a freight broker agent? Sounds a little fishy... Be careful and do your research before selecting an organization or school just because they might be cheap. Often you get what you pay for.
