Student Account compromised.

Anyone received email from Google like this below?
The following is an automated security notification from Google about your domain accounts.
It has come to our attention that some of your user accounts might have been compromised and are being used to send spam from your domain: elmls.net
The following users in your Google Apps domain appear to be affected:
We have disabled the users in a way that they can be recovered by the admin. Please follow the actions below before you re-enable these users.
ACTIONS REQUIRED
1. To reset the user’s password, follow the steps in this Help Center article:http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=33319
Inform the user of their new temporary password, and ask them to set a new password (it should not be a password used with any other sites).
2. To help check whether their account might have been compromised, advise users to:
- Check for filters and forwarding rules so that email is not being forwarded to suspect addresses.
- Check to make sure their signature has not been changed.
BEST PRACTICES FOR SECURITY
As an administrator, you may also consider implementing additional security features for your Google Apps domain:
1. Enrolling your domain in 2-step verification, which offers an additional layer of user authentication:http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=175197
2. Completing the Gmail Security Checklist:https://support.google.com/mail/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=checklist.cs&tab=29488
Additional Information about the activity of affected user accounts can be obtained by using the Audit API:http://code.google.com/googleapps/domain/audit/docs/1.0/audit_developers_guide_protocol.html

The Google Apps Team

How did you fix theirs? I reset password and not enabled them back yet.
I have only to accept mail from elmwoodschools.org domain from Teachers mail. Their gmail is empty according to Usage. Could their Android phone be culprit. It registered itself in Device Manager.
