This sounds like a different scenario. Knowing someone doesn't remove the possibility they send you an infected file, and opening a file on a linux box that doesn't have an av scanner won't remove or notify you that there is a virus installed.
So now you have to explain to your customer why you sent them a virus infected file. I am sure they will accept your explanation of "I knew the person who sent me it and opened it in openoffice without issues".
