Abstract: The fibre theorem cite{schm2003} for the moment problem on closed semi-algebraic subsets of $R^d$ is generalized to finitely generated real unital algebras. A charaterization of moment functionals on the polynomial algebra $R[x_1,dots,x_d]$ in terms of extensions is given. These results are applied to reprove basic results on the complex moment problem due to Stochel and Szafraniec cite{stochelsz} and Bisgaard cite{bisgaard}.
