How GoShare Prevents Freight Fraud with Advanced Technology and Trusted Drivers

Protecting Shipments with Technology, Transparency, and Trust

Freight fraud is one of the fastest-growing threats in logistics today, costing businesses billions annually. From identity theft to stolen cargo and false claims, the risks are real but preventable. At GoShare, we’ve built a tech-enabled logistics platform designed to make every shipment secure, traceable, and transparent.

Our combination of driver verification, AI-powered fraud detection, and real-time tracking keeps freight safe at every step. Here’s how GoShare prevents freight fraud and protects shippers nationwide.

1. Rigorous Driver Verification

Every GoShare delivery professional is carefully vetted before being approved to take projects. All drivers must:

  • Verify their driver’s license, vehicle registration, and insurance.

  • Pass a comprehensive criminal background check through Checkr.

  • Verify their bank account.

  • Maintain proper operating authority in states where it’s required.

This rigorous onboarding process ensures only qualified, accountable professionals are allowed to join the platform.

2. Proprietary Driver Rating and Monitoring System

GoShare uses a proprietary driver rating system powered by advanced data analytics. Each driver’s performance is continuously monitored for reliability, safety, and customer satisfaction.

Our technology and our customer support team identifies irregular patterns or high-risk activity in real time, automatically flagging and removing bad actors before issues arise. This approach allows GoShare to maintain one of the most trusted delivery networks in the logistics industry.

3. Real-Time Driver Tracking and Geo-Fencing

Transparency is a key weapon against fraud. GoShare’s platform provides real-time GPS tracking for every project, allowing customers to monitor their delivery’s location from pickup through drop-off.

With geo-fencing technology, GoShare can detect location verification anomalies or suspicious behavior instantly, triggering alerts to internal teams. This prevents delivery manipulation.

4. Proof of Delivery and Time-Stamped Ledgers

Every GoShare delivery includes a photographic proof of delivery and time-stamped event log. Receiver signature is also available when needed. Drivers can capture photos at pickup and must take a photo of the delivered cargo to confirm freight condition and successful completion.

This immutable record of events builds a transparent chain of custody, helping shippers quickly resolve claims, eliminate disputes, and prevent fraudulent activity.

5. Integration with Third-Party Fraud Prevention Tools

In addition to GoShare’s proprietary protections, we leverage third-party financial fraud prevention platforms for identity verification, credit card fraud prevention, and anomaly detection. This multi-layered approach strengthens our defense against potential threats and enhances confidence for our enterprise partners.

6. Customer Vetting and Identity Verification

Fraud prevention doesn’t stop with drivers, GoShare also verifies some new customers before they can post their first project. GoShare also have a business verification process and badge to identify companies that been authorized to have a business account. Using a combination of third-party fraud detection tools, manual identity checks, and credit card authorization holds, we ensure that payments are legitimate and shipper identities are authentic.

GoShare also developed a proprietary customer rating system that tracks transaction history, feedback from drivers, and behavior across the platform. This allows our system to proactively flag suspicious accounts and maintain a network of trusted, verified shippers. By holding both drivers and customers to the same high standards, GoShare creates a balanced, fraud-resistant ecosystem.
