This appears to me like the spammer is copying a legitimate email message, then sending a spam message to the same recipient while using the original sender's name and address in the From line. It commonly says something mysterious like, "This is in follow-up to our prior conversation", and "Click here".  If you don't understand it, dont click.  Contact your frield to see if it really came from him.
