The passports will help you on your way as you work to steel the Crown Jewels. 


By adding more people to your Mafia you add additional ways to get passports. British Passports are needed to complete each of the three London chapters.

Mafia Wars teams up with PayPal to offer exclusive discounts

PayPal has teamed up with Zynga to offer Mafia Wars players a 15% discount on any reward point package, 21 reward points and higher purchased with PayPal. Comes to players as a limited time offer. PayPal seems to want to stamp it's presence as an online pay master in the fastest growing online payment market, Social Games.

So players looking to get a discount had better hurry as both Zynga and PayPal say that this is a limited time offer. We feel that we are going to see more of these offers across other games by Zynga like FarmVille and PetVille as PayPal seeks to establish themselves in the online gaming market.

Mafia Wars Subterfuge Crates

Mafia Wars has launched brand new subterfuge crates in the Marketplace. Crates are filled with limited edition items and users will love. The pictures below show a Con Man, Fake ID and Poison filled ring. The art of subterfuge is to dodge and escape.

The Subterfuge Crates are available in the same setup as other crates in the game, and can be purchased either one at a time, or in groups of three. A single Subterfuge Crate costs 12 Reward Points, and the trio costs 35, for a savings of a single Reward Point when buying in bulk.

Either way, you have a 10% chance of receiving a Rare item from your crate, a 30% chance of finding something Uncommon and a 60% chance of finding a Common item. Some of the items you might find within are Con Men, Poison-Filled Rings, or even Fake IDs.

What did you receive inside your Subterfuge Crate? Let us know in the comments – we’d love to hear if you thought it was worth it!
