if this was a verbal statement made than its best to ask the person to go back and tell the truth.

If this was done in writing and PMP credentials were used in Forums, signatures etc, then you will have to report to PMI as its violation .

but in the above case he may not tell the truth to his manager.....so is it not best to report to his manager directly. / or to PMI?

correct answer is option A - Report the person to PMI as he violated pmi rules and regulations.

Answer b

What is the right answer ?

It's report to PMI
