Just received an invitation email from Alaska Airlines to create a free account.

This is invitation is for any Virgin America members (any tier). So if you have are a Virgin America member and active "as of December 5, 2016 or later," check your email. The 10,000 miles were posted instantly after my account was created. This is worth $190 free money according to the pointsguy.

VirginAmerica Elevate Members may receive an email asking them to activate their Alaska Mileage Plan account and get an instant 10,000 Mileage Plan bonus miles which is supposedly enough for a round-trip + some taxes.

Here's what the email & the website states ->

Activate your Mileage Plan account now, and earn 10,000 bonus miles. That's enough miles for a roundtrip award instantly.1

Taxes and fees starting from $5.60. Award availability and pricing may vary. The purchaser of an award ticket is responsible for all applicable taxes, fees, and checked baggage charges imposed by the transporting carrier(s) or U.S. or international authorities.

Terms and conditions: The 10,000 bonus miles offer is valid for active Virgin America Elevate members as of December 5, 2016 or later who received an invitation to activate a new Mileage Plan account from Alaska Airlines, and are not active Alaska Mileage Plan members. Qualifying members have through December 31, 2017 to activate their Mileage Plan account and receive their bonus miles. Any individual may receive the bonus a maximum of one time, even if they hold multiple separate Elevate accounts. Offer is not combinable with any other Mileage Plan enrollment or account activation bonus offers. Mileage Plan conditions of membership apply; visit Alaskaair.com/MemberTerms.
