Prepositions with passive voice

I don't like being _________ behind my back.

A) spoken to B) spoken at

C) spoken in D) spoken it

I found this on an online test.

I'm really confused as I think that the accurate preposition would be "of" or "about". Hope you help !

Thanks in advance !

"Spoken about" makes the most sense. Only ( A ) is a grammatical choice, but not in that particular sentence. There are many many English tests which contain faulty questions or choices of answers.
