U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan has urged SpaceX to address claims that its Starlink satellite service is being used by transnational criminals to perpetrate fraud against Americans. “SpaceX has a responsibility to block criminals from using the service to target Americans,” she stated, citing reports of scams linked to Southeast Asia.

Hassan has called on Elon Musk for clarification on SpaceX's measures to prevent misuse of Starlink, particularly as scammers are reportedly exploiting its portable and decentralized nature. Recent investigations indicate significant losses, with Americans affected by scams amounting to billions in expenses.
