The US check system is quite outdated. It was not designed in a secure way in the first place. My mother still pays stuff through checks, I guess because she can’t get used to the idea that she can pay things like a mortgage online or automatically and does not have to physically drive to the bank every month. I suppose at least she does that rather than mailing it.
