MOTO, CAN I HAVE A LOAN?

According to an email sent to my cat Moto he's recently won 1,000,000 euros in the "Spanish Lottery International". Obviously he's been a busy boy while I've been out at work. If you look back a few months you'll see Moto has a fascination for my laptop, hence his decision to open an email account.
At roughly the same time Moto had an email from a Miss Suzan Williams, a daughter of the late Chief Financial Officer of the country of Liberia, asking for his assistance to invest the sum of 7.5 million US dollars that was deposited for this poor woman. I think you know where this one goes ...
The serious point here is that even cats get spam or fraudulent emails. I can be certain what's happened is his email address that I mentioned in that previous blog was trawled by an automated program that looks for email addresses across the web. That address was then sold and has now been targeted by spammers and con artists.
Moto is considering his options before replying.
