The correct answer is C. Phishing. Phishing involves creating a fake website or email that mimics a legitimate one to trick users into providing sensitive information, such as login credentials. In this scenario, users are accessing emails through a duplicate site that is not run by the company, which is a classic example of phishing.

Selected Answer: A
The correct answer is: A. Impersonation Explanation: Impersonation refers to an attack where a malicious actor pretends to be someone else, typically by mimicking a legitimate website, email address, or service. In this scenario, the users are accessing emails through a duplicate site that is not controlled by the company, which indicates that the attacker is impersonating the company’s legitimate email platform to deceive users.
