Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
The process of deception is being described here and it is being brought out that the one who is deceived should be different from the person who is being described by the missing word. Therefore, the missing word cannot be a word like ‘victim’ or ‘casualty’ because both of them mean the same as ‘deceived’. Hence, the correct answer is B and E as ‘deceiver’ and ‘swindler’ mean the same and they are in consonance with the remaining sentence.
