SpaceX has disabled more than 2,500 Starlink devices that were being used by cyber scam syndicates in Myanmar, the company said in a statement.

“On the rare occasion we identify a violation, we take appropriate action, including working with law enforcement agencies around the world," said Lauren Dreyer, SpaceX’s vice president of business operations for Starlink, in a post on X.

“In Myanmar, for example, SpaceX proactively identified and disabled over 2,500 Starlink Kits in the vicinity of suspected ‘scam centers’," Dreyer said.

The company, however, did not say when were the consoles disabled.

This comes after the junta government said it has discovered 30 sets of Starlink “receivers and accessories" during a raid on one such scam compound this week.
