Which of the below does not qualify as a form of peer-to-peer Cybercrime ?
Tripura Public Service Commission - 2025,
Answer: B
The keyed answer is On the deep web, payment information is leaked.
Peer-to-peer cybercrime is an attack carried out directly against a target: a Trojan implanted on a victim's device, or a phishing message sent to the victim, are standard examples. Leaking payment information on the deep web is a different thing: it is the later sale or sharing of data already stolen, not an attack on a particular peer. That is why it is the item that does not qualify.
Options A and D are direct attacks on a target, so they do qualify. Option C is printed in the booklet only as 'Mm', which does not name anything complete; the keyed answer does not depend on it, since B is the one item that is not an attack on a peer.
