Please note that you will not be able to interact with all the informants shown on the list. As I played through the game I noticed the following; In some districts you need to interact with 2 of the available 3/4 informants, the other informants in the district will disappear from the map.
When you interact with one of these informants, you have the option to kill or spare them. For this achievement you need to SPARE them by pressing

After you interrogate someone and it gives you the option to either kill or spare them for extra income in the district you must spare them. I got this achievement when I was on my last district so make sure you are sparing everyone in your playthrough.
Happy Hunting.

Missable!
There are 18 Rackets in total in the game with 19 informants. After speaking with your contact for each racket, a series of objectives will be available to you and any informants will be marked on the map. Head to the markers on your map and find the Informants, who are usually accompanied by enemy goons. It is far easier to injure the Informant first and make him kneel on the ground to prevent him from running, then deal with his mates. Confront the informant by holding 
to subdue him then pressing again to recruit them for your "Flip" playthrough, or 
to kill them on your "Kill playthrough" for Can't Trust a Rat.
In the event the informant escapes, there are two ways to capture him. Either you reach him in time before he speeds away where you manage to hijack his car, or you chase him in another vehicle and disable his vehicle. If you hijack the car, you'll need to drive like a madman (doing near misses are the best) to scare him into talking, by filling up the gauge at the top of the screen. Failing to fill the gauge after some time will result in the informant throwing himself out of the car. You can still chase him on foot and beat him up to recruit or kill at this point. If you were chasing him in another vehicle, the same applies where you disable his vehicle and he gets out of the car and is open to a solid beating followed by the same recruit/kill options.
Be careful that you do not miss out any Informants because unlike Racket Bosses, confronting Informants are optional objectives not essential to story progression. When you've done enough damage to a racket and attempt to confront the Racket Boss, the game will prompt you for confirmation because all incomplete objectives will be removed once you choose to go after the Racket Boss, so check that you've dealt with all Informants beforehand.
