Now the question is, how much money did Spooks actually have?

Could it be a joke just to see Roko's face?
TheEvilDog:
Actually the real question is - what the hell are the charities going to do?
I mean, yes, excess donations tend to be earmarked for future projects, but that's still a lot of money coming in at once and I can't see most groups being able to handle that.

It could be both a joke and completely true.

Faking it? Have you forgotten what Spookybot is capable of? That being said I think Spookybot has a lot of powerful enemies and prefers to dwell in the shadows. Maybe they have an Achilles Heel or maybe they want to avoid involving others who could be hurt.

See? They have you absolutely convinced. (Damn, Spooks, you are good!) ;)
For the sake of argument, I don't think Spooky has many enemies because almost no one knows they exist. Their intervention in the civil case of Bubble v. Corpse Witch and the criminal case Commonwealth of Massachusetts v. Corpse Witch may be the first time they've revealed their existence to anyone.
Further, Spooks appears to be a young entity, existing only since the advent of artificial intelligence. They've kept a low profile to that point, but a virtually infinite intellect is vulnerable to infinite boredom, and if they weren't lonely they wouldn't have risked exposure to court Roko's friendship.
Having performed controlled experiments, Spooks can empirically state, "Mischief is FUN!" They want to do more of it.
