$500K Bourbon Shipment Stolen in Alleged Carrier Impersonation Scheme

Approximately 10,800 bottles of Noble Oak Bourbon valued at $500,000 were stolen from an American Supply warehouse in Philadelphia on June 5, after suspects allegedly impersonated an authorized carrier. The parent company, Apogee 21 Holdings, reported that the thieves presented a driver's license and a valid purchase order number, which were verified through a logistics provider before the shipment was released. The FBI has highlighted an increase in such carrier impersonation schemes.
