Which term is used to check for possible smuggling activity?

• A. Smuggler check
• B. Dangerous subject
• C. Record check is positive
• D. No record found on subject

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is recognizing the specific action officers take to look for smuggling activity. A smuggler check is a targeted inquiry used to see if a person or vehicle is involved in smuggling operations, drawing on databases and indicators tied to smuggling patterns. It’s the process designed to identify potential smugglers, rather than just general background information.

This term is the best fit because it directly references smuggling activity itself, not general safety risk or the outcome of a routine background check. The other phrases describe either how a subject is classified (dangerous subject) or the results of a background search (record check positive or no record), which aren’t the dedicated check for smuggling.
