Possible hack attempt against n-t clan members, possibly others.
Disclaimer: The purpose of this thread is to prevent fellow FF players from losing their steam accounts!
This is a warning to anyone who might have been asked to join the groups "FF Players against OT" or "Crybabies" Specifically new timers clan members, as everyone from n-t I've talked to has received this invite. FF community member Bridget's steam account has been hacked and is being used to try and get people to join these groups. This is a common tactic used to steal accounts! do NOT click accept! Also the invitation keeps poping up after I click decline. It's possible that a bot is spamming group request messages, but then again it might just be some random steam bug. Others on the steam forums have posted about a similar issue coming from hacked or unknown accounts. Here is the text posted in the profile of both groups created from the hacked account, if any other group has this in it's profile don't join it: Quote:

LOL we got an Honorable mention. I wonder if they realize that we currently have no bans on our server?

This is why I don't join groups and I don't use steam friends.

Yeah, I never really thought Bridget would have gotten his Steam account hacked into.
His password is probably a mixture of russian and english characters

That whole N-T qoute thing at the top made me laugh. If I could get a little more information on this, perhaps a good update on it about exactly wtf is going on. Then I can take action for my side of the community. Other then that, it seems like a trust issue atm.
