LocalWelshman Posted Thursday at 09:56 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:56 PM An idea I thought of was how about we make a step in crime RP to actually launder money? Would be a big process in implementing ways we can launder the money to make it appear legit. However I feel it would be great for RP (to actually follow steps like the real mob). It also gives a big possibility for police to catch big crime bosses and families. I see it as a way to benefit everyone, some may not agree as it gives a way for people to get caught lol. Crime RP gets a new process to launder money and improve RP, police RP gets a new way to catch people. Could also slow the economy down depending how fast someone can launder said money. I might be speaking out of my ass and waffling nonsense that may not work just an idea to discuss 2 2 1 1 Link to comment

Now Ik drugs and such can be put into the bank. Which is why this may not happen, however if there was a different way to store drugs and such in a more realistic sense then I think this could work and be a good idea Link to comment

It’s a way to legitimise the money. Essentially if over a certain amount let’s say 1m was placed into a bank. It would be flagged to someone within the government and an investigation can be triggered. To avoid this it allows criminals to have more RP by legitimatising the money e.g putting the money through legitimate business so it doesn’t flag (would be shown through paperwork). It is a way to make things more realistic. Obviously the methods and steps would need more discussion, and things would be need to looked at more clearly such as storage within the bank. But it offers positives for everyone, including the economy by slowing down how much spendable legitimate money is in it. Link to comment
arth Posted Thursday at 10:27 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:27 PM (edited) +1 Realistically, cops would definitely catch on when people deposit or make a lot of money like when they process their drugs or sell their drugs. Having ways to explain it with legitimate businesses like gun stores, clothing stores, etc would be cool and brings more risk when you're doing high profile stuff that gives you a lot of money (trade/crew deals, selling class 4 guns). Right now the only way for cops to really tap into the criminal world is just through being an undercover agent and that's mainly detectives only, adding this brings more criminal and cop rp. Could maybe have a separate division like IA to investigate suspicious withdraws or deposits. Honestly this could tie into the briefcases suggestion. There will be a max amount of cash you can carry in your wallet so people don't avoid the update entirely by just not depositing anything, but you can also fill briefcases with money and put them in your bank for big cash deals. Briefcases are limited though so you won't be able to fill much, maybe around $25,000 with the cost of the briefcase costing $5,000? If you want to fill higher amounts, you either have to a) upgrade the briefcase with some npcs that trade, into an upgraded briefcase which can carry $50,000 b) buy a duffle bag from barge or sewer npc which can carry $250,000 but is risky as it can show up on your back when carrying it at full/near full amount as well as showing "carrying a large sum of money" red text kind of similar to the package event thing Edited Thursday at 10:31 PM by arth 1 Link to comment

bingus Posted Friday at 04:51 AM Share Posted Friday at 04:51 AM Like I said in a comment to a previous suggestion, I don't think money laundering will ever work unless the server develops a way to distinguish between "legal/clean money" and "dirty money". @Bodges has a really good idea regarding this. End of the day though, aside from bi-weekly flat rate taxes, no one wants to report any sort of income or do document rp. I tried it before 3 years ago and it wasn't very popular at all.

Maybe there's a way it could be done in a way kinda like the new "mini game" systems implemented for check forging or cleaning bodies etc that could generate shit for in game ledgers. Similarly there's a bunch of things that could/should be moved in game such as registrations, employee ledgers, hell we could maybe even make it so motions and other court paperwork could be done completely in game and stored in a file cabinet/database/ inbox system. Lotta stuff is done off server thru mega document rp that turns a lot of people off from doing it but if it's in game and more immersive more people might engage. 1 Link to comment
