Correct Answer:
C. A verbal promise
According to the definitions in Rule 2, A verbal promise is NOT typically considered formal evidence in a regulatory or legal context unless it is recorded or corroborated by other verifiable means. Evidence usually refers to tangible, documented, or recordable information that can be presented and verified.
- Video recording is considered strong evidence as it provides visual and auditory proof.
- Social media post is a digital record that can be authenticated and used as evidence.
- Email is also a digital communication record, verifiable through metadata and content, making it valid evidence. Rule 2 would likely define evidence to include verifiable and recordable forms of information.
