By physically handing them to a person, you can have proof they were delivered. Electronically delivering them doesn’t offer that proof. The disguises are to avoid being noticed, so the party you are trying to serve the papers to can’t notice you and run away. These papers also have to be delivered by a 3rd party, so disguises are not common.

Once that initial paperwork is served, further correspondence can be done electronically, and the plaintiff say “the defendant knew this document was coming” since they were already given notice via the initial paperwork
