My last message obviously threw him for a loop.  I was pretty sure I had lost him by this point, since it can be reasonably guessed that the death certificate was part of another scam he was running - namely the "dead relative you've never heard of, who bequeathed you scads of money" con.

Dear Hargrove, 

I do not understand your writting below:   

(I have perused the documents you sent, and I found one
somewhat puzzling, namely the "death certificate" of
some poor individual. Was this perhaps sent to me in
error?)??????????????????   

To what death certificate are you talking of and from which adminitration issued the cert. I am not sure that you are the right person I am talking with (Mr.Edwin Hargrove) otherwise you must be mistaken.   

Regardless of the pending transaction and in view of this recent attitude I am afraid that you will deliver at the end.   

Thanks,   

Frank Pedro.

Hargrove responds with: 

Comrade Pedro:   

I have attached the document in question.  It was originally sent as a tif file, but I have converted it to a jpg as per our previous conversation.   

I am gratefully awaiting your explanation.   

Regards,   

Hargrove
