New Web Merlin Feature:
Identity Fraud Protection |
|
|
| Avalon has launched a
new program to protect your importers’ identity.
According to the Federal Trade Commission, the
United States experiences an estimated 9 million
instances of identity fraud each year. For companies involved in logistics, the threat
is enormous. Thieves can bring counterfeit goods
into the country using forged POAs, and C-TPAT
members may be especially targeted because they
experience fewer examinations. Protect your clients
and the brokerage community as a whole.
