Description[]
Now, I got my share of high-net-worth individuals in my contacts these days. And since we got our own partnership up and running, a few of 'em started hitting me up with some propositions that been making me think shit, I need to get back in the game... with me running the plays, and you working the fields? Man.
So look, here's the deal. We take out some assholes, who fuckin' deserve it anyway, which fixes the market in our own client's favor, and they send us some serious paydirt, you got me?
All you gotta do is pick up the phone, I'll give you the mark, and then I'll text you some details from the burner. You can do it however you want, but the clients pay extra if you do it just right. Sounds good?
After completing their third Security Contract, Franklin calls the player to advise that he is now running the insider-trading assassinations that Lester Crest had him perform in Grand Theft Auto V. Since he believes the FIB are monitoring Mobile Phone communications, he advises that all instructions will be given via payphones. Players can call Franklin to request a hit or they may encounter the payphones randomly ringing.
Should the player choose to drive away from the payphone, it will stop ringing once they get far enough, thus requiring waiting/calling for another hit.
Players are given a specific target to assassinate, usually with a 15 minute time limit. Additional specific instructions can be followed in order to increase the cash payout for the hit.
If the bonus method is not used, a 3 star wanted level may need to be evaded, or multiple enemy reinforcements may need to be eliminated or evaded until the time limit expires before the mission is complete.
After completing a hit, there is a 10-minute cooldown before another hit can be requested.

Hit List[]
One player minimum
The CEO[]
Main article: Payphone Hit: The CEO
Now, full disclosure: I did some work a while ago that gave this asshole's market value a boost. But that was before I heard what a piece of shit this fucker really is. So, when a client came to me with a proposal to make some bills off liquidating his ass, man, I said hell yeah.
Our client goin' short the fuck out of the Gold Coast Development stock... then we goin' ice this fool while he's playing at construction worker for this dumbass show. The stock tanks, our client gets rich, we get paid.
And if we make it look like he died because of some unsafe conditions on his site? Makes it even better.
The target is at a construction site filming a reality TV show called Closet CEO. Franklin refers back to the events of The Construction Assassination when Lester had him kill Enzo Bonelli to this CEO's benefit when the Gold Coast Development stock price rose. Only he now knows that this target was just as bad as Bonelli, so has no qualms taking him out in the same way.
The Assassination Bonuses revolve around making it look like an industrial accident.
The Cofounder[]
Main article: Payphone Hit: The Cofounder
But now they got a chance of a new relaunch to turn it all around. But here's where we come in: his cofounder still clean as they come, but he can't do shit while this degenerate fuck has the reins. So we goin' arrange for him to have a lil' accident. The cofounder takes over, and then the stock prices pick up, which means our client's goin' make a big fuckin' bank, and we get paid.
We got the target at the motel with a nasty-ass prostitute right now. Go put his ass out of his misery.
The target is at a motel with a prostitute and can be killed as soon as he exits the room before he gets into his Mariachi Tornado.
All Assassination Bonuses revolve around destroying his Tornado with him inside.
The Judge[]
Main article: Payphone Hit: The Judge
And tomorrow, she's ruling in a big fraud case against one of our partners at Lombank. The whole world know he guilty as fuck, so a whole bunch of our clients are out there betting against Lombank stock. Only I just got wind the lady judge been paid to throw the fuckin' case out. And if the defendant wals, and the stock don't tank, our clients stand to lose a lot of fuckin' money. So, I say we bring some karma to this evil-ass bitch, take her out, and our clients'll give us a nice kickback when justice takes its course.
So look, she's at the golf course now, playing a round to celebrate in advance. Your outfit should still be at the club house. I suggest you go pay her ass a visit.
The target is at Los Santos Golf Club teeing off with a playing partner and two armed security guards.
The Assassination Bonuses revolve around using golfing equipment.
The Popstar[]
Main article: Payphone Hit: The Popstar
And now he wanna do some reputation management, so he can buy his way into being the next big pop star. He got a label and a song that's all bought and paid for, he go a ad space and social media campaign ready to fuckin' go. He's all set to scoop a number one single when it drops next week.
Now, I know what you thinking: another manufactured pop star, so what? Who cares? Well, our client works at the record label, and he got some nice intel... the label sunk everything the got into this lil' son of a bitch. And if he has an accident, not only will the world be a better place, but the label fixin' to go bankrupt. And our client just bet against them big.
So look, we make the stock crash, our clients get some zeroes added on to their bank account, and we get a slice of the motherfuckin' pie. Now let's go put this lil' evil motherfucker in the wrong kinda headlines.
The target will be driving around in his customized Annis Euros.

The Tech Entrepreneur[]
Main article: Payphone Hit: The Tech Entrepreneur
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.
All Assassination Bonuses revolve around use of a Taxi.
The Trolls[]
Main article: Payphone Hit: The Trolls
It's a tall ask, but man, I need you to get rid of as many of the ringleaders of these basement-dwelling crooks as soon as you can, before they crash the fuckin' stock. And look, if you do right, a lot of very rich people goin' be very grateful to us, and we goin' get paid.
