They do not typically involve direct theft like shoplifting (A), are not necessarily the most prevalent crime in society (B), and while they can be considered a form of larceny, saying they are the "highest form" (C) is subjective and not accurate in a legal context. However, they are indeed an aggravated form of obtaining property by false pretenses, as they involve deception and manipulation beyond simple lies (D).
