Payphone Hit: The Tech Entrepreneur is a mission featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as one of the Payphone Hits in The Contract update. It is a Free Mode job that can be conducted in any session type by answering a ringing payphone either randomly encountered or requested by calling Franklin Clinton.
Description[]
But check this out: one of those investors had an even better idea, and he came to me with it. He's goin' bet against the stock, then we take this bitch down, our client cashes out, and we make bank.
We just got intel that the target is fucked up right now at some charity event, and fired his driver for the fuckin' tenth time. And he just ordered a cab, but I got Imani to cancel that motherfucker. Dude should be right outside.”
The target is at a hotel and the player can simply head directly there to take him out. This is virtually the same as The Hotel Assassination scenario.
Locations[]
- Von Crastenburg Hotel in Morningwood
- Eclipse Lodge on the corner of Hawick Avenue and San Vitus Boulevard in Burton
- The Vault, Strawberry Avenue, Pillbox Hill.
Taxi Assassination Bonuses[]
Bonus Conditions[]
After receiving the target location, Franklin sends a text message spelling out the Bonus criteria. All scenarios involve use of a Taxi.
Franklin will then text again and say that Imani has located the vehicle and a search location is shown at Downtown Cab Co. in East Vinewood to obtain a Taxi.
The player simply needs to steal one of several Taxis parked in the Downtown Cab Co. lot.
Players are free to use their own Taxi (e.g. the Pegasus Lifestyle Management special vehicle from Arena War, or the Vapid Taxi that can be purchased after the Taxi Work Week event) or any other stolen Taxi. As the Arena War and Vapid taxis are both Pegasus vehicles, there is no Mors Mutual Insurance penalty for destroying them.
Drowning[]
Once the Taxi is collected, the player can collect the target from the hotel and drive him to any substantial body of water to complete the hit and receive the bonus. The Del Perro Pier is in close proximity to one of the Hotel locations to allow the player to pay homage to the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas mission Management Issues by driving the target off the end of the pier.
Crushing[]
Once the Taxi is collected, the player can collect the target from the hotel and drive him to the car crusher located within the Rogers Salvage & Scrap scrapyard to complete the hit and receive the bonus. No actual crusing is shown. A Corona is in front of the HVY crusher, and when driven into, the player hears the sound of the crusher operating as they spawn at the gate with the mission success message.
Exploding[]
Once the Taxi is collected, the player can collect the target from the hotel and drive him to any gas station. The player then simply has to explode the Taxi with a gas station pump. This can either be by driving straight into one (causing themselves to be Wasted) or parking next to one and safely shooting the pump from a distance to complete the hit and receive the bonus.
Bonus Failure Consequences[]
A 3 star wanted level will need to be evaded.
