    3. Where does on report stuff like this? ------------------------------------- Dr. Sadiq Tinubu Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Central Business District, Herbert Macaulay Way Abuja, Nigeria. Attn: Finley, (Dr.) Carmen J. Dear sir, REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE-STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL; I am Dr. Sadiq Tinubu, a top management staff in the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and I head a seven-man tender's board in charge of Contract Awards and Payments Approvals. I came to know of you in my search for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential transaction that involves the transfer of a huge sum of money to a foreign account. There were series of contracts executed by a consortium Multinationals in the oil industry in favour of NNPCamong which were: The Supply of Y2K Compliant Personal Computers and Accessories to the Warri,Port Harcourt and Kaduna Refineries. Supply of Drugs and Relief materials to the victims ofthe Niger/ Delta crises. The construction of Schools, Hospitals and Housing Units in the Niger/Delta Region. The original value of these contracts were deliberately over invoiced in the sum of USD TWENTY FIVE MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS(USD$25.5M) which has now been approved and is now ready to be transferred being that the Companies that actually executed these contracts have been paid and the projects officially commissioned. Consequently, my colleagues and I are willing to transfer the total amount to your account for subsequent disbursement, since we as civil servants are prohibited by the Code of Conduct Bureau (CivilService Laws) from opening and/ or operating foreign accounts in our names.Needless to say, the trust reposed on you at this juncture is enormous. In return, we have agreed to offer you 20% of the transferred sum, while 10% shall be set aside for incidental expenses (internaland external) between the parties in the course of the transaction. You will be mandated to remit the balance 70% to other accounts in due course. You must however NOTE that this transaction is subject to the following terms and conditions: Our conviction of your transparent honesty and diligence. That you would treat this transaction with utmost secrecy and confidentiality. That as a foreign partner, you will follow our instructions to the letter. Provide the account required, and competent toassistus on profitable investment areas in your Country in an advisory capacity. Furthermore, Modalities have been worked out at the highest levels of the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Nigeria for the immediate transfer of the funds within 10 working days subject to your satisfaction of the above stated terms. Our assurance is that your role is risk free. To accord this transaction the legality it deserves and for mutual security of the fund, the whole approval procedures will be officially and legally processed with your name of any Company you may nominate as the Bonafide beneficiary. Once more, I want you to understand thathaving put in over 26 years in the service of my country, I am averse to having my image and career dented. This matter should therefore be treated with utmost secrecy and urgency. Kindly expedite action as we are behind schedule to enable us include this transfer in the First batch of this financial quarter payment. Please acknowledge the receipt of this message via my direct telephone number 234 1804 4649 and my internet fax number 801 516 7986 only. Yours Sincerely, Dr. Sadiq Tinubu. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Auctions - buy the things you want at great prices http://auctions.yahoo.com/

    3. Actually, Gordon, you update your website just like you update your WorldConnect site. Instead of generating a new gedcom and uploading it into the same account, you generate a new, updated *webpage,* and upload it into the same account, keeping the same page name. Just as your new GEDCOM over-writes your old one, so does your new page replace your old one.

When accessing your site with http://www.rootsweb.com/~arstfra2/ it only shows a directory with the one page for George White's will listed. A home page would be up-loaded with the name: http://www.rootsweb.com/~arstfra2/index.html --- Susan SGTAYLOR1@att.net My Genealogy Website - sgt http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/ ----------------------------------------------- USGW Mansfield, CT - http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/mansfield.html USGW New London, CT - http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/newlondon.html USGW Norwich, CT - http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/norwich.html USGW Windham, CT - http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/windham.html USGW Coordinator Plymouth Co., MA - http://www.rootsweb.com/~maplymou/ USGW Plymouth, MA - http://www.rootsweb.com/~macplymo/ *********************************************************

    1. [RW-Help] Page not found on this server.
    2. Good Day, I can not get the my site to open. Two days ago I could go there with no problem, yesterday I was learning to use the MS_FTP and change the name of the Public_html file to Index_html and changed it back. I do not know if this played a part but after that I could not get the site to open and still can not. Could someone please tell me what I need to do. Thanks Lenda

    1. [RW-Help] How to delete a file after upload
    2. John Lucey
    3. I've got a new problem. After getting help to ftp and upload my files to public_html subdirectory, my next upload accidentally went to the subdirectory above called homepages.rootsweb.com/u1/manifest/. How can I delete those files? I suppose I could leave them there but that seems sloppy. ---John
