Aha, I got it! The answer is (ii) and (iii) only. Negligence and deceit are the way to go here. Now, if only I could remember the difference between them...

Haha, Benny must have been a real smooth talker to get Anne to sign that contract. At least she has a few options to get back at him!

Wait, I'm confused. Isn't negligence and misrepresentation the same thing? This exam is really testing my legal knowledge.

I think the correct answer is (ii) and (iii) only. Negligent misrepresentation falls under the Misrepresentation Act 1967, and the tort of deceit also applies here.
