Same, but selecting accept from a friend invite won't get you 'hacked.' If this is true show some proof.

I got a spam bomb of these on my steam friends. I remember back in the day, a couple months after it switched from won to steam, there was a similar problem but on the steam friend's itself.

Still sounds like one of those stupid chain messages. Either way i dont add people with that name, and how could it possibly infect you if your friend has him added.

Hmm.. sounds like j_neutron pissed off someone and now they are spreading around a nasty rumor.. I mean can you honestly get a virus just by accepting a friend invite?

Pics or it didn't happen.
And unless your online-friend's-sister's-baby's-brother's-uncle's-brother-twice-removed got his hard drive wiped by this, I ain't beleiving it. Oh wait, even if THAT happenned I wouldn't believe this.

Ya srsly.
If adding some one to your friends list will get you a virus, then instead of NOT ACCEPTING .. xFire might as well stop it's service.

It most probably is a chain letter; however, when it happened on steam friends a couple years ago hundreds of people lost their accounts. There was no file transfer, just an add on friends. The targeted users were 4-5 digit accounts, that's why theren't aren't as many of them around anymore.
Either way, it would be best to be cautious all the time.
