Has DropBox been honest with us ? - their secret database

Many many years ago I removed my account and they confirmed deleting my data.

Now it turns out they kept our contact details in a secret database.

Something went wrong, error ? hack ? sabotage ? And our data was compromised internally..

For over a week now I am getting spam badge emails from them, they are aware of it but do not stop it.

DROPBOX GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER !!!!!

Apparently the DropBox team is unable to stop this, even for people who do not have an account anymore (yes, this is a new one I need to address the issue).

DropBox is handling a lot of confidential and private information for millions of people. yet they can not even be trusted handling our email addresses :-(
