Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Opportunistic theft refers to the act of stealing something that is readily available or left unattended. In this case, the police officer may have seen the money on the table and took advantage of the situation to steal it. Kickbacks, shakedowns, and internal payoffs all refer to illegal dealings involving the exchange of money or other benefits in exchange for favors or preferential treatment, and do not apply to this scenario.
