Top Mafia

This last weekend Zynga introduced a new social aspect into the game called Money Laundering.  Along with it came a new collection appropriately called the “Money Laundering Collection”.  Vaulting this collection reduces the bank fees by 3%.

We always enjoy “Game Enhancements” … however they often come with glitches.  Zynga has a consistently poor track record of adequately testing features/enhancements prior to releasing them into production.

  Bonus Received: -3% to bank deposit fees

Glitches Include:

• Currently DOES NOT reward people any money for performing the act of laundering money
• The collection set DOES NOT appear on someones list of collection items
• Can request help for laundering money using a hyper-link even though the option to launder money didn’t appear in-game

Update (Nov19-2009):

Zynga has improved upon the Money Laundering component for friends that help you to launder your dirty money by awarding experience now. Funny thing is that they still HAVE NOT fixed that it IS NOT awarding any money.

Money/Experience I’ve seen received:

• $2,500,000 / 7 experience
• $5,500,000 / 9 experience
• $9,000,000 / 13 experience
