Before you get too far with the "cover" story you're making:
- there were +/- 400 accounts from one developer that were hacked, but during the holiday there were multiple developers hacking iTunes.
- no one said it was a phishing attack. There were accounts of people who hadn't used iTunes in months or years having their accounts compromised. Also the one youtube video about someone touting how secure his system was, until the bank called him.
I suspect it's too early to write this off as a "minor thing" as Apple would like you to believe.
