Nothing is 100% safe. It is just a matter of being safer than the effort the attacker is willing to spend gaining hold of the data (or that it will take so long that the data is no longer worth having).

The context is that companies that continue to push fax could, and should, do something better. The manufacturers I mentioned, for example, could implement paypal or stripe payments with very little effort. Aside from security issues (fax to email gateways, cc info sitting on a shared fax machine for everyone to see), it would reduce costs.
