February 23, 2026

Cargo theft in the U.S. has changed dramatically in just a few years. What was once dominated by small regional crews is now increasingly driven by organized international crime rings using deception, cyber tactics, and strategic fraud.

In this episode of HDT Talks Trucking, Deborah Lockridge speaks with Scott Cornell, vice president at LogistIQ Insurance and chair of the Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA), about how cargo theft evolved after 2020 and why “strategic theft” is surging.

They discuss:

  • The shift from straight theft to organized strategic schemes
  • How double brokering scams work
  • Freight “laundering”
  • Phishing, social engineering, and identity theft in the supply chain
  • How cargo criminals manipulate tracking data
  • A practical three-layer prevention strategy trucking fleets can implement
