Get Your Clams Back!

Share:

For those who have lost millions of Clams to Zynga's black hole, now is your chance to get them back. All you need to do is send new friends Mafia Wars invites. This won't work with friends with existing friends that aren't in your mafia. Please keep in mind that Zynga likes to roll back accounts when they make mistakes so it's no guarantee that you will get to keep the extra money you acquire.  Here is how it works. Accept a new friend via Facebook (or send a Friend Request to somebody). Once they accept, simply send them a Mafia Wars invite through the Recruit Page.
As soon as you click on "Send Request" and it registered, you will see a significant amount of currency added to your unbanked currency pool. I deposited all of my Clams prior to sending the the request shown above. When I sent the request, I got 649,200 Clams.
I send out a few more and each time my Clams increased. I was happy to stop at 2,596,800 because that is about how many Clams I lost to the black hole that Zynga won't admit exists.
I was curious to see what would happen if I sent our 50 requests at the same time so I went for it. Clams are pretty useless so I won't cry if Zynga takes them all back.
I was pretty surprised when I saw over 35 million Clams.
I banked it and I will wait to see what Zynga does next. Sending out Mafia Requests is a big part of the game so I can't imagine they will punish those who are doing it as part of normal game play. They did exactly that for war loot so I wouldn't go crazy with this if you don't really need the currency. Apparently it works with all destinations and the currency will be added to whichever one you are in when the requests are sent.

Thanks to Vivek Pandita for discovering this glitch, posting it on the Mafia Wars Loot Lady Fan Page and helping me verify it.

      You didn't read the entire post. The key sentence is that this works in ALL destinations. To get Pounds, make sure you are in London when you do it. It still works.

    It appears as if you no longer get a "bounty" for sending out MW friend requests :-(

    This worked for me in previous cities, but it looks like they closed the loophole in London, as it didn't work for me tonight.
