Script Kiddie is a person who uses existing computer scripts or code to hack into computers, lacking the expertise to write their own

not A because script kiddies are "working" mostly external from their home and not in a company etc.

a script kiddie is someone who uses existing tools, scripts and or code to hack into systems. None of this points to A being the answer and you have to think about how they would get physical access to retrieve that information for A. B is easily done and can be done using many pre-written tools on OS's such as Kali Linux and other varients.
