Ottawa (July 22, 2009) - Homeowners looking to save some money on their mortgage are rushing to local banks to take advantage of the dropping rates. As a result, MyFax, the world's fastest-growing Internet fax service, cautions homeowners to securely submit sensitive financial information to secure those loans. While the drop to 5.14 percent for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage is good news, MyFax product marketing director Luc Vezina warns that during the rush to secure good rates, personal information can be haphazardly handled.

MyFax also protects against prying eyes around a common area fax machine. When users send a document to a fax machine, it sits there until the person it's intended for picks it up, or the document is delivered. In the meantime, anyone walking by can see what's in it. If the provider has a MyFax account, documents are sent directly to the desktop of the person who needs to receive them, maintaining the ultimate level of privacy for financial information.

"Obtaining a mortgage loan requires you to submit some of your most important and sensitive financial information to the mortgage company," Vezina said. "It's data you want viewed by as few people as possible. Tools like MyFax ensure documents are delivered quickly and securely."

MyFax offers an uncomplicated price structure. The basic service is $10/month which includes 100 outbound and 200 inbound faxes and one year of fax storage. There is no setup fee and no hidden charges.
