Has to be C.
Although regulations at these events tend not to ban a 13 year old from playing under 16 section such an action would not be looked on favourably. If it is clear that playing up a section is being done merely to save money I would expect the hosts to refuse the entry.
This would be easy for the hosts to spot because money transfer is (usually) a single electronic transfer from national organisations bank account to hosts bank account. At that time players full details - most notably date of birth and section are with the hosts.
And yes the host nation will have time to check. Once regulations are published on the FIDE site they will maintain an office just to deals with admin workload of multiple enquiries. Good news for CS is that the preferred language for comunication is (usually) English.
On that theme I once got congratulated by a TD on my fluency in German - I did the decent thing and forwarded that mail onto Siegrun. :ymblushing: and confessed to the host - I had composed only one of the German language mails. :ymblushing: :ymblushing:
