Letter Scraps

Last Edited by bOnEs April 08, 2014 : 21 Comments : 229,444 Views

There are a total of 50 Letter Scraps to collect in GTA V to unlock the 'A Mystery, Solved' Achievement/Trophy. These letters are available to collect right from the start of the game.

It doesn't matter which character you use to collect them. Trevor's piloting skills do come in handy on some of them so keep that in mind. So without further delay, let's get right to it!

    Both times I've gone through this mission and got to 49 scraps but missed one out... Both times the final scrap has appeared in the dried up river bed underneath the bridge on route 69, slightly West of Great Chaparral graveyard... I don't know if this is coincidence but if you get stuck on 49 I'd recommend looking here first...
  • Cookie Clutch (Guest) January 14, 2017
    I can't seem to find #14 when I started it wasn't there. And now I have 48/50, and can't find #14 and some other one. Please Help!?

    Be sure to check out the "A Starlet in Vinewood" guide as linked above.
  • Konstantinos5m (Guest) August 30, 2016
    It's a nice guide. I found them all and killed Peter Dreyfuss. By the way: When you find them all you have to switch to Franklin.
    Dreyfuss will appear as a strangers and freaks mission on the mini map. When you get close it might disappear. Try backing up a little. Then it will appear again. Dreyfuss has a Landstalker, an SUV. It doesn't seem fast, but it is. I recommend using Franklin's Bravado Buffalo S fully modded and a sticky bomb. After killing him, you won't gain a wanted level.

    Either you are looking next to the wrong bench or you got that one and are missing another.
  • jon (Guest) July 22, 2016
