Same here. I got an email today with the same birthday story. DO NOT send an email to this person. It's a SCAM "This is a type of Nigerian 419 scam where the scam-er sends the victim a check, the merchandise is shipped then the check doesn't clear. The bank goes after the victim for depositing a counterfeit check, meanwhile the scam-er got their merchandise for free... I've seen this one for years now.
