C. The person injured
AI Explanation
Section 330 creates a damages remedy for the injured party. Real Property Law §330 says that an officer authorized to take or certify a proof or acknowledgment who is guilty of malfeasance or fraudulent practice in performing such duties is liable in damages to the person injured. For contrast, Real Property Law §333 addresses recordability issues, not damages for malfeasance.
