Brief Explanations:
Option A may seem friendly but could be seen as accusatory. Option C is extreme without evidence. Option D is too passive - avoiding contact isn't a good customer - service approach. Option B is a positive customer - service approach that also allows the sales associate to monitor the customers in a non - confrontational way.
