Which term refers to a telecommunication access device that is false, fraudulent, not issued to a legitimate subscriber account, or otherwise unlawful or invalid?

• A. Breach of Computer Security
• B. Counterfeit Telecommunications Access Device
• C. Unauthorized Use of Telecommunications Service
• D. Communication Common Carrier

Answer: (B)

The key idea is identifying the term that specifically criminalizes possessing a device used to access telecommunications services when that device is fake, fraudulent, or not legally issued. The best match is counterfeit telecommunications access device, because it directly describes an access device that is not genuine or legitimately issued to a subscriber, making its possession or use unlawful.

This fits exactly the scenario described: a device used to obtain telecommunications services that is false or unlawfully issued. The other terms refer to different offenses or concepts—breach of computer security is about gaining unauthorized access to computer systems, unauthorized use of telecommunications service focuses on using the service without permission regardless of the device’s authenticity, and a communication common carrier is simply a service provider, not a crime or an access device.
