Hello everyone, nice to meet you all

Have a safe and Happy Holiday all

Are my friends from FreightSkool taking some time off? I think we all should, but everyone has different thoughts on this. Merry Christmas, to those celebrating. And Happy New Year to all! May 2025 be full of joy and growth.

Good afternoon EVERYONE! I have a question and am hoping I can get a bit of advice as I am a bit new to the industry. I am an active freight broker, and I randomly received an email from another active broker. Small company asking if I would be willing to co-broker for/with them as an independent contractor. I spoke to the fellow and he sounded like a nice guy but in the day we live in I am always skeptical and trust NO ONE. Sooo, he did send me over his blank co- brokering agreement, SAFER snapshot, and his surety bond. Then he requested I send him my W9, surety bond, and for me to send back signed agreement. What I am wondering is has anyone had experience co-brokering? How do I protect myself from being scammed? I have no big red flags that makes me feel like I am getting scammed I am just always skeptical and feel like there is way to stay protected somehow. Should I make up my own contractual agreement to have him sign? What would you do?
