This question focuses on civil action processes. The correct answer accurately describes civil litigation procedures, evidence preservation, or remedies available to fraud victims. Civil recovery is often an important component of fraud resolution.

The correct answer is C. Structuring scheme. The CFE Manual explains that structuring occurs when a person breaks up money into smaller transactions specifically designed to avoid regulatory reporting requirements or internal financial-institution controls. It notes that many countries require reporting of currency transactions above a certain threshold, such as more than $10,000, and that a common red flag is a customer making many deposits just under the reporting threshold.

That is exactly what Tammy is doing. Her repeated deposits of $9,000 to $9,900 over several weeks strongly suggest that she is intentionally keeping each transaction below the reporting threshold to avoid government scrutiny. Option D, integration, refers to a later laundering phase in which illicit money is reintroduced into the economy as apparently legitimate funds. Options A and B do not match this conduct. In money laundering cases, fraud examiners are trained to identify transaction patterns that appear deliberately calibrated to evade mandatory reporting rules. Repeated cash deposits just below a legal threshold are one of the clearest examples. Therefore, Tammy is most likely engaged in a structuring scheme, making C the correct answer.
