HOW TO OPEN AN E-GOLD ACCOUNT

Step 1. Go to E-gold and click on "Create An Account"

Accept the User Agreement by clicking on the "I Agree" Button.

Step 2: Fill in the needed contact details and information. Most

important is the “Passphrase”. Use the “SRK Console”- button to open up a secure virtual

keyboard and enter it with your mouse (prevents keyloggers and trojans

from logging your typing on the keyboard).

A. Select your Account Name. Is optionally, to make a Description and Additional Description.

B. Fill in your User's Name; add a small description, if needed.

C. Fill in contact information (Point of Contract), in particular: your

Name, Address, City, State/Province, Country/ZIP/Postal code), E-mail, Phone,

and Alternate Passphrase. With the Alternate Passphrase, if you forget

your main passphrase this alternate will help you to remember your main

passphrase. Example is your alternate passphrase is : Secret , but you

can change and use any one you will likely remember.

B. While the main passphrase mustl include letters. For example, if you

choose your passphrase to be: secret you ten add 123 which is:

secret123, you will be login in to e-gold with this passphrase. This

passphrase just mean the same thing as email passward (don't be

confuse) but it must be different from your email passward that why you

have to add numbers at the end if you are using your email passward.

Be careful: for additional security, the passphrase shall contain

letters and

numbers; it is also recommended to use at least 10 characters long. It

is

important to fill your passphrase using SRK. For optimal Safety of Your

D. Then you indicate a password to use the E-gold directly (New e-gold

Account Passphrase). The rules applicable to Alternate Passphrase are

as

well applicable to the account passphrase. Then you need to repeat the

new e-gold Account Passphrase once again to avoid misspellings.

E. Enter the Turing Number Entry mentioned on a picture. It is

necessary

for the system to make sure the account is created by a user but not

some special program.

Step 3. Check your e-mail inbox for the E-gold Account Number.

EXCHANGE AGENTS

You can sell your e-gold dollars to the exchange agents I have described above.

You might pay a small fee for this
service but the

transaction is usually fast and convenient. All you need do is to

contact them

through their website or by phone and tell them of your intention to

sell your

egold. You will then be given their e-gold account number into which

you will pay

the amount of e-gold (USD) you want to sell. Because of the

instantaneous

nature of this transfer, the agents can confirm receipt of the e-gold

within

seconds and they will proceed to credit the corresponding amount (in

naira) into any bank account that you specify. You can also go to the offices to

collect cash (naira not dollars!). Most of us that have E-gold accounts in

Nigeria use this option. You can also contact me to help you sellyour e-gold

anytime fast

E-GOLD AND ATM

Because of the impressive and impeccable records of E-Gold Ltd over the

years, they have now been licensed to allow their account holders operate

ATM Debit cards which gives them 24 hour access to their funds

anywhere they are in the world. These cards are called ATM Gold Cards.

There are different versions of the ATM Gold Cards - MasterCard version,

Cirrus/Maestro version etc. You can obtain a Cirrus Maestro ATM Gold Card

(or a MasterCard ATM Gold Card) and use it to make withdrawals from any of

the numerous ATM machines in Nigeria. Both companies (i.e. Cirrus Maestro

Cards Inc. and MasterCard Inc.) now have bilateral agreements with banks like

UBA,ZENITH, and ECOBANK. I believe, with the ongoing consolidation of

banks, more mega bank will join this network. Now, with this agreement in

place, you can obtain any of the ATM Gold Cards from

http://www.bluebanking.com for about $10.00! You can upload money directly

from your e-gold account onto the card and withdraw it from any of the

designated ATM machines in the world. The number of ATM machines for

these companies in Nigeria today is increasing by the day and you can get

more information on this from the above listed banks.

The only snag with this Card thing is that the ATM machines won't pay

you in dollars. Instead, they read the amount of dollars that is loaded in

your card and then convert it to the local currency of wherever you are. For

instance, you will be paid in Naira if you use your card in Nigeria and if you

take the same card to Ghana, the ATMs there will pay you in Cedis! You can

load your card from your e-gold account through the several options you will

be given when you order the card. Loading the card usually takes less than 10

minutes! And you do it yourself! I am aware that some big hotels and resorts

in Nigeria have such ATM machines; EKO Hotel, Transcorp Hilton, and

Silverbird Cinema are just a few of them.

WESTEERN UNION

You can use your e-gold account to send Wester Union Money Transfer to

anywhere in the world! This is a facility that has helped

me so much to get my money in dollars. All I have to do is send Western

Union Money Transfer to myself and within 3 hours I get my money in dollars

from any of the participating banks in Nigeria. Let me quickly remind you that,

at the present moment, it is not possible to send Western Union Money

Transfer out of Nigeria,you can only receive. But with e-gold it is no possible

to send money to any where in the world including to yourself here in

Nigeria.
