Here, "some one" is incorrect in this context.

I think the answer is B because the first sentence is conditional starts with 'if' so the resulting sentence would +v1.

The Answer is C. Because the right way to say is "and you'll never get it back".

Also, someone is a single word. In B it is given some one which is wrong too.

I think the answer is 'A'.

As in the first sentence, it says having received, which means the action is still in process but after reading the whole sentence, then I realized the reply is in the present for the actions done in past.

Correct me, if I'm wrong.

The phrase "never you will get it back" is the language used in poems (as poets use the poetic licence to change the order and spelling of the words) but in literature, the sentence will be- you will never get it back.
