Options:

fraud

flake

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

Credit card fraud has increased in recent years.

Explanation:

  • Fraud: This is the correct word choice. "Fraud" refers to deceptive or dishonest activities, especially in terms of financial transactions.

  • Flake: This word means a small, thin piece or fragment. It doesn't fit the context of discussing credit card activities.

  • Freed: This word means to release from restraint or confinement. It doesn't fit the context of discussing credit card activities.

  • Fluke: This word means a lucky or accidental occurrence. It doesn't fit the context of discussing credit card activities and their increase.
