Larceny includes three types; which of the following is NOT listed as a type?

• A. Larceny
• B. Fraud
• C. Forgery/ Uttering and Counterfeit
• D. Theft by deception

Answer: (D)

Larceny is categorized into three types in this material: larceny, fraud, and forgery/uttering and counterfeit. The option that does not appear as one of those listed types is theft by deception, because it describes a method of obtaining property (deception) that falls under fraud or false pretenses rather than being named as its own separate type in this framework. In other words, theft by deception is a way someone might commit larceny, but the framework here distinguishes three categories, with theft by deception not listed as its own type.
