We have been made aware by a follower of ours on Instagram that someone is impersonating DAT with an email address of case@onedatfreight.com and sending emails to carriers stating, "WE HAD TO CANCEL SETUP: YOU HAVE A REPORT." The email contained a copied freight guard report from Carrier 411, and at the bottom, it says, "Please Respond: onedatfreight.com."
There are a few things wrong here.
Does DAT own/have a deal with Carrier411? (I don’t think so) Because that is the giveaway to me - mixing up companies/products
