'''M.O.B.''' is a gang that hangs around the [[Firefly Projects]] in [[Broker]], [[Liberty City in GTA IV|Liberty City]] and possibly [[Acter]], [[Alderney]]. The acronym stands for either '''Money Over Bitches''' or '''Money Over Bullshit''' and the gang is most likely based off of the New York based S.M.M. ([[wp:Sex Money Murder|Sex Money Murder]]) Bloods. M.O.B. can be found in large numbers in the Firefly Projects around the parks and basketball courts. They can also be found in Acter, and they may be associated with the [[North Holland Hustlers]] as well; the gangs found in Firefly Projects, [[North Holland]], and Acter are in fact indistinguishable other than the fact that the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]] database labels the Holland crew run by [[Dwayne Forge]] and [[Playboy X]] as the North Holland Hustlers. It is unknown if Forge or X have any control over the Firefly and Acter based M.O.B. Regardless of neighborhood, these gangsters are all often heard saying "Is the B for Bitches or Bullshit?" (in reference to the B in M.O.B) in addition to talking about [[North Holland|Holland]]. It is possible that the two gangs are integrated in order for them to utilise graeter numbers and easily control more turf around the city.

*'''[[Easy Fare]]''' - Niko gave a lift to [[Jermaine Andrews]], one of the gang's members. They had to escape from the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]].<br />
*'''[[Escuela of the Streets]]''' - [[Manny Escuela]] tasked Niko with destroying a warehouse used by the gang and killing all drug dealers inside.


They can be identified easily as they often wear silver/platinum chain with [[Dollar|$]] or a [[Money|money]] note, again in reference with their name and also silver/platinum/ice watches which most of them seem to have. They dress in "Hip Hop" style clothing with baggy bottoms/jeans and hooded tops with Hinderland boots. You can see some members wearing orange/ice blue hoodies or jogging bottoms and black/white t-shirts with gold chains and also flat caps sometimes they'll be wearing long winter jackets with furry hoods. Some members were the puffy coats and white and red tracksuit bottoms. There's also the big fat baldy type that wear coats with white collar and cuffs with leather gloves. They sometimes wear black or white & gold bandannas too. Also they walk with a kind of “swagger” dropping their shoulder a lot. Unlike the North Holland Hustlers the M.O.B dont wear any open hoodies or full track suits.
