They double Brokered 3 of our loads, 1st in April, they were tendered load from BC-IL and they brokered it out to Quick Gold, Quick Gold then brokered it out to Trident. Trident then found out through Shipper it was our load when they didn't get paid and so we paid directly to them.
Few days ago, another carrier came to us claiming they did 2 loads for us and were having difficulty getting paid, the loads were tendered to them by Maple Eagle Freight Systems using their Brokerage MC1540666.
After making several attempts of calling and emailing them, we've reached dead end as Maple Eagle is not responding to any of those
 
4 FG's in the last 72 hours for the same (I assume you're 1 of them based on your details here ). sounds like a plague incoming.
 
They double brokered one of our loads about a year ago and then damaged the load, but thankfully the carrier who actually pulled the load initiated their insurance because they were legit but Maple Eagle is not.
With this many complaints somebody should be reaching out to loadlink immediately.. they might be tired of hearing from me lol.
 
They have been double brokers for some time now, they double-brokered a Landstar load to us (The irony LOL), and we ended up giving it back as we knew something was fishy. They used to have their owns trucks as well, not sure if that's still the case.

Wow looking at the list and just a couple pages in there sure is a lot of um carriers listed and looks like they get a fine and say screw it and do not pay as most ineligiable do to non payment.. Fines, laws, do not apply either I guess.

Yep, apply for the program, get a rubber stamp, get all the employees you can, screw them over because they can't complain - I mean literally, they can't complain.
Then hope for non-enforcement but when it happens, don't pay the fine, get kicked out of the program and be happy still that the fine that you received, and will never pay, was a lot less than the savings and the money they made off the backs of the workers. The best part, you still have the employee to screw over until the employee finally moves on.
It's one the dumbest things I've seen come out of the federal government. The government does not seem to really enforce the fine. The fine or penalty is not tied to their corporate business number, and the only thing is that they're not part of the program, but the non-compliant business continues to hire like they are.

Here is an interesting tidbit from the following news story.Untitled.jpg
