you’ll receive a Pouch of Ill-Gotten Goods for each Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild daily quest completed during the mini-event. Note that repeatable non-daily quests, such as “The Covetous Countess” from the Thieves Guild tip board, don’t grant this reward—perhaps the Countess is just too covetous to shell out extra payment for the occasion?

You also have a chance of acquiring a Pouch of Ill-Gotten Goods from any criminal activity you undertake, such as pickpocketing or looting a murdered citizen. These pouches are, as with other items acquired in this way, subject to confiscation by guards if you get caught. However, the chance of acquiring a pouch of Ill-Gotten Goods goes up along with your bounty.
