I agree with Harley. Option A is the textbook definition of email spoofing. It's a way for attackers to impersonate a trusted sender and trick recipients.
I'm not sure, but I think B) The criminal act of sending an illegitimate email, falsely claiming to be from a legitimate site in an attempt to acquire the user's personal or account information, could also be a form of email spoofing.
I think the answer is A) The forgery of an email header so that the message appears to have originated from someone or somewhere other than the actual source.
