Fax machines remain a staple in many businesses, as evident from their continued production and availability at retailers like Staples, Office Depot, and Amazon, which often bundle them with scanners, printers, and other functions. Secure communication is a top priority, especially in industries like healthcare, where my hospital and doctor's offices rely on fax machines to exchange sensitive information with other offices, insurance companies, and pharmacies. The news is filled with stories of scammers exploiting vulnerabilities in email and other digital channels, highlighting the importance of secure communication methods. Furthermore, scams involving gift cards have been widely reported, with thieves using store displays to steal activated cards.
