OpenStudy (anonymous):

Both a & c could be correct answers. but now that i read it again, C explains or adds to A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well both are reasonable answers because both are very much so true but C would actually help carrying out a hoax brecause you can get as many people to know about it as possible to help you but like I said before both answers I feel have equal success in being right
