I was looking at the drivers available section of EO classifieds and ran across this add.

Driving jobs and opportunities..
1/27/07
Solo driver seeks opportunity.

The add goes on to say that the driver has been qualified at Tri-state, Panther, Express-1. Looking for a opportunity.. ECT..
Even gives the drivers name.

If you go to the section that says view all adds by this poster and cross reference. You'll find 4 adds total.. This is were it gets interesting.

On 1/27/07, the same poster posted a add in the Team Driver Wanted section saying this..

Join me on the road. I have a straigh truck with 84" bunk leased on to Tri-state, ect. ect. ect..

And the funny thing is that the the other post's on 1/20/07 and 1/17/07 says that the driver is looking for a position for SOLO ONLY??

Owners, we all want to :censoredsign: about getting screwed over by drivers, but are you really researching your drivers?? This means more than just listening to their BS on the phone. Do a background search, look at references, find out if their past employment is true or false.. Have they worked for more people than they say?? Remember it's your a$$ on the line when things go wrong, not the drivers..

We need to start a section here on OE entitled, Owners Beware..

As you are finding out flatbeddin, seem there are more players than games to play. I feel tho, just like a prospecter in the hills, if you keep dipp'in your pan, you'll find a nugget. I did.
