The game contains references to fictional illegal activities (such as contraband trading and loan sharking) within its game narrative. These are gameplay mechanics only and should not be interpreted as endorsement or encouragement of any illegal activity.

No real money is involved in playing this game. No real transactions take place. No real financial risk is incurred.

Players must be aware that real-world trading and investing carry significant financial risk. Always consult a qualified financial advisor before making investment decisions.
