In 2019, how do people not understand how fax machines work?

Woman calls and sends me a fax with some papers (five pages). I notice that her name is blacked out on the pages, and determine that she used an alias when she called me. I have no interest in helping her and tell her I'm declining.
She calls and sends a fax demanding the "return of the papers she sent me" and requests that I fax them back. During the call, I tried to explain to her that if I faxed the original fax documents "back to her," that I would still have the papers she sent me. She said "I still want you to give me my papers back ... fax them to me." So, I did.
Edit: I hate faxes anyway ... it is the age of email and scans.

Because it's 2019 and only football teams on signing day use fax machines?

When you ride the rails do you have access to fax?

Just like younger generations can't drive a stick shift.
It isn't necessary knowledge in today's world, troll.

I think the premise of your thread is really flawed.
But this:

I think we may still have a fax machine in our parts department downstairs. Last time I sent or received a fax though was probably 3 or 4 years ago. Maybe 5.

Fax? Why don't you just send it over on a dinosaur?

Black out everything on the pages and then send them back.

because we have email, scanners, and cameras on our phones
The only people who still use faxes are out of date government offices and doctors/insurance companies only because they have to deal with said out of date government offices.

I shared the story with a lawyer friend. He said he clerked for a firm when fax machines were first coming out. The firm had a runner send a 30 page fax to another firm. The other firm called and said "WTF is going on with this fax?"
The runner who sent the fax kept resending it because the pages were coming out the other side of the machine.
