Answer 1

Answer:

D) Consumers are not responsible for unauthorized transactions if their cards  are lost or stolen.

Explanation:

A zero liability protection is a policy where any lost card's charges are not put against the owner, keeping them free from any liability. This means that any charges or expenses after the loss of a card are not charged or put against the owner of the card.

So, the 'zero liability protection' put by financial companies means that the customers will not be held responsible for any expenses or charges made with their lost cards.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
