It wasn't Bob.

It was actually a message by Eve that she forged because she's madly
jealous and wanted him to break up with Alice so she could have him for
herself.

This of course was after Eve got blackmailed by the NSA into becoming an
informant because the feds really wanted to investigate Bob's possible ties
to terrorism on account of his vacation to the bahamas last year.

And then of course it just turns out Bob just Disapparated there by mistake
after getting some bad magic lessons from Neville Longbottom, who is Donald
Trump's newest Secretary of Magic, the nomaj's presidential liaison to the
MACUSA delegation.
