Scott Cornell confirmed that cargo thieves deliberately struck security escorts protecting two high-value technology shipments. The drivers then continued with each load instead of stopping for help. Cornell serves as EVP and Crime and Theft Specialist at SPG Cargo & Logistics. Cornell also serves as Chair of TAPA Americas and has spent more than 30 years investigating cargo theft. Cornell described the “bump-and-run” method during an interview on FreightWaves’ Fraud Watch podcast.
