Final answer:

A violation of the DTPA would be constituted by fraudulent acts by a real estate agent as it involves deception, which the act is designed to protect against.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking which of the following scenarios would constitute a violation of the Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA). The correct answer is C. Fraudulent acts by a real estate agent. This is because the DTPA is intended to protect consumers against false, misleading, and deceptive business practices, unconscionable actions, and breaches of warranty.

While disclosure by a real estate agent and intermediary representation are standard practices when they are conducted ethically and in accordance with the law, fraudulent acts are a clear violation of the DTPA as they involve deception or misrepresentation.
