SubscribeI just received this email from the Apple Learning Interchange…
Text from the email…
“Dear Apple Learning Interchange member,
We recently learned that the security of Apple Learning Interchange (ALI) members’ names and passwords may have been compromised. These accounts are limited to accessing the ALI discussion board and do not contain sensitive information such as credit card or social security numbers.
If you use this name and password combination on other websites and services, you may risk vulnerability on those sites. We strongly recommend that you change your password on any site that might have the same name and password combination.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for your continued participation in ALI.
Sincerely,
The Apple Learning Interchange Team”
The keyword here is “may” have been compromised. I would suggest ALI users head over and change their passwords even though your username and password “may” not have been compromised.
Dude, it's a scam!

I don't know. All I know is that I received that email from the same
account Apple always emails me. Also, TUAW reported on this, and other
teachers I know received the same email.
The site was also down last night and now there is a site maintenance
page up.

We shall see.
I know there are account scams but this does not seem that way as of
right now.
If you have any other info please share!
