Answer:

Option A, Through the Dark Web where the value of the stolen funds can be stored on hidden servers

Step-by-step explanation:

Content that is available on dark web can not be detected by search engines specially through the traditional browsers or standard browsing technology. Along with that it has tens of thousands of sites and at a time only certain limited number of sites are available.

Money related frauds are basically driven by this dark web. Criminal enterprises determine personal details through various means and hence can derive your credentials and financial details. The criminal portions of the dark web makes trade in fraudulent information easy and accessible

Hence, option A is correct
