Nah, a DAMP cloth (not a wet one) won't contribute much moisture--it can be dried with a paper towel or dry towel after I suppose. 

And  I agree with above --its a safe bet that if the cab is moldy, other hidden parts of the basement are even more so...

Mrephunk:
its not a finished basement, cement floors and walls and about a month ago I took everything out of it and power washed the floor and walls then painted drylock over everything. There is absolutely no visible mold anywhere. I threw away more than half the stuff that was in there when I cleaned it out and what I put back was mostly tools and such.

lilshawn:
mold is one of those things that grow from a singe tiny spore.

mold spores are most certainly inpregnated into MDF/Plywood etc because it's processed.

the issue you have is moisture. not mold.... the mold is just showing you there is moisture.

control your humidity/moisture and the mold will say hibernated in it's spore form.
