A freight forwarder acts on behalf of importers an

A freight forwarder acts on behalf of importers and exporters to move goods through the supply chain. They engage shipping companies to transport goods from producers to manufacturers and on to the final market or customer.

While there are many genuine freight forwarders, unfortunately fraudulent freight forwarders also exist.

It is important to know how to avoid fraudulent freight forwarders and their scams and there are many ways you can avoid being a victim of fraudulent freight forwarders

Firstly, you need to understand the functions of a freight forwarder and what roles they are required to carry out and also understand the mode of transport your goods require.

Secondly, know your trading terms, so before you hire a forwarding company to transport your cargo, do a thorough research and understand what charges will apply for your shipment when using various Incoterms. This will protect you from fraudulent companies who may start charging you with illegitimate fees.

Also, you should know the normal shipping costs. Get multiple quotes from multiple freight forwarders which would give you an idea if the amount offered by the freight forwarder is legitimate or not.

Finally, always watch for fake numbers and addresses, always pay attention when checking the validity of your freight forwarding company. You can check their legitimacy from their websites but at the same time also be aware and beware of fake websites.

Have you had any experience with fraudulent freight forwarders and how did you tackle it? Let’s us know in the comments.

A container stowed near a heated area on board can cause cargo damage.
