ATM Hacking
Plug a USB into a street ATM, beat the scramble, and walk with the till. Solo job. Government jobs can't do it.
Needs an ATM hacking USB from the black market (about $144,000 with tax). Dumpsters can drop one too.
80% cash. 20% dirty money.
How it works
- Walk up to a street ATM with a USB. E is the normal bank menu. G starts the hack.
- Stay put through the progress bar, then beat the scramble minigame.
- The USB is gone if you finish or fail. Cancel mid-pry and you keep it, but that machine may still lock for a bit.
You're 3 stars when it pays (plus a bounty). Fail the scramble and you're still 1 star, and the stick is still gone.
Can't hack from a vehicle. Can't chain the same machine — hit a different ATM next. After a success, wait about 2 minutes before another hack. Each machine is also locked for a couple of minutes once anyone starts on it.
The whole server sees a toast when someone cashes an ATM. Don't expect a quiet score.
Pay
A normal hit is about $140,000–$220,000.
Rarely an ATM pays 3–6× that — a world bonus, at most once an hour on the whole server. Don't plan around it.
Tips
- Bring more than one USB. Fail the scramble and that stick is still dead.
- Rotate machines. Same ATM twice in a row will bounce you.
- Dumpsters are the cheap USB source if you don't want to buy one.
- This is not a Fleeca. It's a street box.
