Have you checked your backups page?

Users with a similar symptom may simply be being misled by the system being slow to update the reported storage in use. After deleting most of my files, Dropbox was reporting, after I clicked on my initials icon (between the bell icon and 'Upgrade'), that I was “Using 1.49 GB of 2 GB storage”. However, if after clicking on my initials icon I then clicked on 'Manage account', it showed a much lower and presumably correct amount of storage in use. After uploading 1.3 GB it was showing 2 GB if I only clicked on the icon, but by the next morning it was correctly showing 1.4 GB. So, always refer to the storage reported by 'Manage account' for an up-to-date amount.
