scan it
dial up number
and then send it
all of which can take up to 10 minutes

all the while i'll do it in under 2 min from my scanner to said person's inbox

no offense bud, but you're fighting a losing battle

Fax and mail is the best way to send anything.

Email correspondence is unreliable, and cannot be proved nearly as easily.

Fax confirmation, and post office confirmation, means you got it/they got it no excuses.


Stfu stupid arse ranters.

Easiest and most reliable would be develop a secure web form that they can digitally sign.

Would make it as simple as typing in their names a couple of times and BOOM it's official the second he hits enter.
