Which pairing is correct?

Elder theft is a form of financial abuse where a trusted person steals money or assets from an older adult. That direct link between who commits the act (a trusted individual) and what is done (stealing) is why this pairing is correct. The other options mix categories or concepts: victims of elder abuse describe who is harmed, not a type of abuse; fraud by imposters is a scam scheme, not a theft by someone trusted; risk factors and signs refer to different parts of assessment and aren’t a single defined pairing; and while bereavement and loneliness can create vulnerability, they are risk factors rather than a specific abuse type.
