How to make money as a criminal ? - This tutorial # robbing.
First off, you need a criminal outfit so people would know who they are dealing with. You can check Binco clothes shop for a criminal outfit (clothes) and buy one. Next off, you need a gun/knife so the person you will be robbing/kidnapping would know you're serious enough. To buy a weapon, either you need to check a near ammunation and buy one (preferably a Deagle for a gun and a sharp knife for a brawl weapon) or you can contact street weapon dealer, you can find any weapon dealer with ease, just keep check advertisements or look around the streets until you find one with a price you would prefer, of course.
Next, all you have to do is seek for potential rich targets, just keep looking around the streets for a rich businessman/civilian (and make sure your target can roleplay decently). Then, you need to follow him to a clear area where you would find no cops/gangster or any person who would pose a threat and call the police. Once you have your target isolated, you walk near him and try to seek his attention (ask him how time is it, do you have a cigarette or a lighter etc, just use your imagination) then when you feel he is a little bit asleep roleplay taking your weapon out of your gun holster/under your shirt and aim it directly to his face, and try to scare him so he won't easily run away.
When you've done that, you need to immobilese him and make sure he won't be able to walk or run away (i.e: shoot him in his leg, deliver a massive hit to his knee etc..). Then you'll be free to start robbing his belonging such as his wallet, mobile phone, credit card...

Hello Argonath players, I have created a guide for players to earn money using different ways.
Cop Duty
Cop duty takes only a few steps. First of all, you need to head to LSPD or any of the other police station and you need to get on /duty. Get a police cruiser and stand on the side of the road or drive around popular areas. If you see any suspicious activity, stop your cruiser and come to the suspect. If they assault you or they are under the influence of drugs, type in /su [ID] [Reason]. You have successfully suspected a person. Now ask they nicely to /gu(Give up). If they do, great, put them in your car by first /cuff and then come to the car with them. Then head to any police station. Personally, from my experience, the best place to jail a person is in LV because no one can take your suspect. Once you have jailed them, you have earned $600.
But...
Sometimes things don't go this way, they will try to run. So pull out your Deagle and threaten to kill them if they don't give up. If they resist, shoot them. You have earned $600.
Remember, Killing a suspect = $100, Jailing a suspect = $600.
For first , learn all the codes. I've printed them on an paper , so if I forget some code.. I can check from the paper. With the codes , like 10-4 you can simply reply to a call out. Example : Jay_Cailan Police Radio : C3 GS9 , multiple heavy armed suspects. Your_Name Police Radio : 10-4. And so on. Just try to learn all the codes by heart. Trust me , it will be MUCH easier to do the cop job when you have all the codes in head.
Second. Earning the money as a cop - I've got lots of questions from new cops , how to earn money as a cop. The answer is simple : If you see a suspect , try to make him to give up. If he doesn't give up , then you MUST kill him or he will kill you. Just try to /m3 as much as you can and shoot his HP on low. So , he doesn't want to die.
If a suspect dies , suspect loses 1000$ . If suspect gets jailed , he loses 200$. I recommended that all the suspects do /gu :P.
If a cop kills the suspect , you will earn ONLY 100$. That's why you should try to make him to give up. If you make him to give up , he will come with you to jail. Always put the suspect in a back door. Will be more RP. Then , if he wants a investigation , do it. Investigation helps suspect , if he's abused. Or like self defense. Always , after investigation , if you investigated that he isn't guilty , do /r Requesting unsus [ID of the player you investigated] , investigated. And if a cop jails a suspect , you will earn 600$. It's best to try to jail him. You will earn a lot of money , suspect loses few money. If he did a crime of shooting or kidnapping , you should jail him for 30-80 seconds.
Now , cops always tell that the suspects hack or have HP bug. Sometimes it's not correct. If suspect is moving , try to shoot 1-2 meters in front of him. On your screen , he's at wrong place , cause the lag. On his screen , he sees you shooting like 1-2 meters back of him. So , if you shoot 1-2 meters IN FRONT of him , on his screen you shoot at correct place and he loses HP (When he's not HP Bugged or if he doesn't use hack).
Pulling over: Players lag with car too. Sometimes you see a car like uses speed hack or teleport in front. That's caused by lag. Always , try to go in front of him and pull over him. If you go in front of him , he rams you but on your screen he doesn't ram you. So , he loses lots of car HP and breaks his car. Try to make his car burn , then if he comes out , do /m3. If he doesn't stop , shoot him. If he have low HP , do /m3 once more. If he still doesn't stop , kill him.
Police clothes. If you want to use all the police skins , not only the security skin . You must have a passport. Passport you will simply get after you've been playing 7 days. After 7th day or on the 7th day , you must wait until someone says that city hall is open for passport tests. Or ask admins. If admin tells he's busy , don't start begging him. Just leave him. I've got a passport from [WS]MrTrane. So , if you see him , ask him if he can make you a passport test. After you got your passport , log out of the game and log in again. If you don't log out , you can't still choose other clothes. After the re-log , go to PD locker room. The room with lockers. Then type /duty and choose the skin you want. Surely you can't still chose FBI or SWAT. You must wait until you become FBI or SWAT , if you want those skins. And also , you can't use FBI or SWAT car if you're not a FBI or SWAT.
Illegal Business
One of the criminal ways of making money is through the drug market. Drugs are easy to obtain but they can lead to troubles along the way. A cheap drug to obtain is weed. Weed seeds can be bought at any super market(69 Cent or 24). Buy as much seeds as you like. One seed can lead to 10-20 grams of weed. Weed fields are around the Argonath State, if you need help, ask a local gang or criminal organization, for a fee, they will tell you. Market prices for weed is $20-30/gram.
Another drug that is available is called heroin. Heroin is an expensive drug. To get heroin, you need $1000. Go to the heroin spawn point and /orderheroin. It takes usually around 5-10 minutes for the heroin to come in so don't be waiting around the heroin spawn point. Market price for heroin is around $40-70/gram. Best people to sell heroin to is an criminal organization or gang.
Now, a couple of tips. Don't hang around the drug spawn point, it will cause attention for police. I suggest that as soon as you grow/order, you should go somewhere not to far. Also, never carry drugs without a reason. Store them as soon as you get them.
Events
Events are a great way to earn money fast. All it takes is skill. Destruction derby is usually a popular event. There are many other events so get active and search in the Event forum. Also, its good to have friends. Some events require partners and/or teams. So always know who your friend is going to be with.
Black Market
Another way to get cash as a criminal is Weapon-Dealing. Now you must ask,how? Well, Black market is filled up with Pistols, Sub-Machine Guns, Assault Rifles, and Snipers.
''Pistol Slot'' - 9mm,Silenced 9mm,Deagle. - These weapons are very good to Role play a Gangster,a Mafia Associate,or whatever you like. Weapons of this type are very good to close-combat,and if you know how to use one of these you can kill another person with 3 shots(Deagle),or you can role play a stealth kill with a Silenced,or role play a criminal,most likely gangster and drug dealer,with the 9mm.
''SMG Slot'' - Tec9,Mic,SMG. - This slot of weapons is good to who wants to roleplay drive-by, gang wars and such. Gangsters mainly uses Tec9's and Mic's,while Mobsters uses SMG's. Depending on how you use a weapon of this slot,you can damage badly a person,and even kill. These weapons are useful for Drive-bys and close range shootouts.
''Assault Rifle and Snipers Slot'' - AK-47,M4,Sniper,Country Rifle. - This slot of weapons is perfect to take down a person from a long range. Both the AK-47 and the M4 have the same ''damage'' level on a person,the difference is that with a AK-47 you can shoot 30 times each round,and with a M4,you can shoot 50 times. Assault Rifles are mainly used by the Mafias/Gangs on huge situations such as kidnappings and bank robberies and by private security groups. The Snipers,they are perfect for Hitman services. The sniper's scope allows you to do precise shoots,while you can also do precise shoots with the Country Rifle,but the Country Rifle does not haves a scope.
If you want to be a successful weapon dealer,the secret is buy a stock of weapons for a cheap price(for that you gotta search well in the Black market) and sell them for a higher price,or a market price,to get profit from your sales.
Saving Money
There is point in your life where money strikes you hard. You need to learn that saving money is also a good thing.
1. Never spend loads on guns.. neither buy guns as a cop. Buy deagles, they are a cheap and can be used as primary gun...
2. Killing cops? beware, You can eventually get piled up or be shot by a heavy armored officer, If you really want to save money, give up, $200 won't do any warm.
3. Avoid being be suspected.. Either way you will always lose when suspected, if not money, time.
4. Try to spend less on guns or pretty useless resource such as drugs..
5. Selling stuff? if the idea is good, you may earn a lot, selling weeds is a good idea also, make sure you are not a nonstop cop.
6. Working on your business would be good...
7. Try not to do always the same thing what others do... create stuff... business ways.
8. have friends ready... or a good reputation to increase your sales.
9. Avoid getting enemies when you're poor, always stay neutral.. don't join gangs who demands you pay guns all times..
10. And remember, always have fun!!
