Although this seems like a straight shot to a pretexting situation, the biggest takeaway would be where it says requesting payment for services from a vendor. AND that "vendor" was not on the approved vendor list/sheet. With that being said, it's a scam to get them to pay money for an empty receipt/service. So, it's D.
