The City of Caribou encourages interested community members to review the proposed changes and participate in this opportunity for public input.

The City of Caribou encourages residents and businesses to use caution when receiving emails involving financial transactions or requests to transfer funds.

Recent scams have become increasingly sophisticated, including the use of email addresses and website domains that closely resemble legitimate businesses or contacts. In some cases, individuals believed the requests were genuine and expected.

Before sending money or responding to financial requests received by email:

✔️ Verify the request by calling the person or organization directly using a trusted phone number

✔️ Carefully review the sender’s email address and compare it to previous legitimate communications

✔️ Be cautious of last-minute changes to payment instructions or wiring information

✔️ If something feels suspicious, pause and verify before taking action

Online scams continue to evolve, and taking a few extra moments to confirm information can help protect both personal and business finances.
