When a carrier in your portfolio (or one you're evaluating) is actively shopping their authority for sale, you'll know about it. ![MC Authority Sales Detection](https://a.storyblok.com/f/290978107134800/2832x1388/fb417a9e36/screenshot-2026-03-06-at-9-13-56-pm.png) ## Why this matters MC authority sales are a leading indicator of chameleon carrier activity. A clean safety record and established authority history are valuable assets, which is exactly why bad actors seek them out. By the time a sale closes and the new operator starts moving freight under that identity, it's too late. This signal catches it before that happens. ## How it works AlphaLoops continuously crawls the social channels, forums, and marketplaces where MC authorities are bought and sold. When a listing surfaces, AI agents investigate the post, extract whatever identifiers are available (a phone number, company name, DOT number), and verify the match against the FMCSA database. Every confirmed lead is scored by confidence and added to your Risk Signals feed. ## What's new AlphaLoops now continuously monitors the buy/sell channels where MC authorities actually trade: Facebook groups, Telegram channels, trucking forums, and online marketplaces. When a carrier surfaces as an active seller, we verify the listing against FMCSA records and surface it in your Risk Signals feed. Each alert includes: - **Verified carrier identity** matched to DOT number, not just a social post - **Authority history** including grants, suspensions, and reinstatements - **Safety record** covering inspections, violations, and OOS orders - **Confidence score** so you know how strong the match is * * * ## How to use it MC Authority Sales Detection is live now as part of the AlphaLoops Risk Signals suite. If you're already a Risk Signals customer, you'll start seeing these alerts automatically.
