 Trucking News
  SPECIAL ALERT:

A new wave of fraudulent "phishing" scam letters, purported to be from the U.S. Department of Transportation, is being sent to trucking companies across the country. The fraudulent letters request bank account information to allow the trucking companies to be eligible for procurement contracts. One clue that these letters are fraudulent is that the return address is 400 Seventh St. SW, Washington, D.C., the former address of the U.S. DOT headquarters. These letters have been distributed an average of three times a year for the last three years. One transportation company that responded with its bank information saw a large amount of money transferred from its account to another bank account and then to a bank in Russia. If you receive one of the letters, report it to your local FBI office or contact the U.S. DOT Office of Inspector General by calling (800) 424-9071, or sending a fax to (540) 373-2090, sending an email to hotline@oig.dot.gov, or submitting a complaint online at https://www.oig.dot.gov/hotlineform.jsp.
