What is 'Blackmail'?

  1. A type of mail service

  2. The exchange of goods under fair circumstances

  3. The extortion of goods or services by threat

  4. A legal business negotiation

The correct answer is: The extortion of goods or services by threat

Blackmail is the act of extorting goods or services from someone by using a threat or other forms of pressure. This includes threatening to reveal sensitive information or taking advantage of a position of power to demand the goods or services. Choice A is incorrect because blackmail is not related to the act of mailing letters or packages. Choice B is incorrect because the exchange of goods in blackmail is not done under fair or legal circumstances, as it involves coercion and threats. Choice D is incorrect because blackmail is not a legal business negotiation, as it involves illegal and unethical actions to obtain goods or services.
