How to extort money from a CEO in BitLife

BitLife’s crime syndicates and mafia families are interesting. While you’ll usually use them to make money, you can climb the ranks and make your mark by becoming a Godfather or Godmother. Before doing that, let’s learn how to extort CEOs in the game so you can complete some weekly challenges.

How to extort money from a CEO in BitLife

Extorting business owners in BitLife involves heading into your mafia menu, tapping Crime, and selecting Extortion. From here, you’ll see various victims, ranging from your average grocery store cashier to CEOs of large businesses. Your goal is to find one with the “Small business” tag, as their owners are usually CEOs.

If you don’t see any right away, create a new character. Your options don’t usually change even if you restart the app or age up, so learning your options early and restarting before making significant progress will help you save time.

From here, you can try a few strategies to complete your weekly challenge, finish your next achievement, or get a Mafia promotion. First, let’s talk about the Alphabet Mafia challenge and the steps I took to complete this task.

Once you find a small business in your extortion menu, extort them for around $10,000. They’ll probably say no, but that’s fine; your goal is to shake them down if they’re a CEO. Pick a scary method, resetting the app if they call the cops on you until they give you the full amount. In most cases, this should satisfy the objective.

What if it doesn’t, though? One alternative is to scare them instead. Although the first method worked for me, scaring them works very similarly and has a chance to knock out the task. You can also lower your amount, especially if the CEO is only giving you a small portion of your request.

If you’re instead trying to rise the Mafia family’s ranks, you want to extort $25,000 with every business you find and repeat the process yearly. If they refuse — which they probably will — shake them down or whack them out. More often than not, your superiors will be very happy with you handling the situation, even if you don’t get any money out of it.
