Hi Everyone,
I just received this in my inbox and wanted to pass it on to more experienced scambaiters in case you want to have some fun. I thought it was amusing that I received mail from Mike Moore. I'm sure some of you can have a ball with this one.
Cheers,
Puter

It looks like a cheque mule scam using the name and homepage of a genuine company.
I didn't know Michael Moore was involved in that either, but it seems it's not the first time he has sent a mail like that:

Knock yourself out and bait this fellah, maybe as the CEO of Exxon or some other company the real Moore has been after Smile
