Telling a deceased to convey salaams to someone who already passed away

Q: Can a person send salaams to his deceased relative at a mayyit of another deceased relative? For example, a person goes by the ear of the deceased and tells the deceived to send salaams to one of the relatives that passed away before. Do they receive the salaams?

A: This practice is baseless.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
