In GTA Online, you have the ability to send a mugger to ambush someone and steal money from them. If someone did you wrong and you are looking for payback, a quick call to Lamar Davis will dispatch a thief to relieve someone of their hard-earned cash. However, the payout can be disappointingly low. This means it is not a good way to earn money in GTA Online, especially if you are a new player. Despite this, it is a fun way to mess around with other players and friends.

Before anything else, you need to reach character level 50 in GTA Online in order to call a mugger. Once you reach the required level, Lamar Davis will randomly call you to tell you about the feature. Afterward, you can call him again and request a mugger to attack a random player for $1,000 cash per request.

Selecting a Target

You can only select players who are in the same session as you. Once the mugger is successful, you get a portion of the target’s cash, up to $10,000. The higher their level, the more cash you can get. However, if the target deposited all their cash in the bank, you won’t get anything.

However, the target can also get their money back if they successfully kill the mugger before they escape. When this happens, you won’t get any payout. If the player leaves the session, the operation is canceled, and you get a refund and go on a 5-minute cooldown.
