It could be a fake phishing email with a spoofed sender address (very easy to do) or (most likely) it could be a phishing attempt that's just using Dropbox as the transfer service. If you don't know who sent it and don't trust it, don't open it. Forward it to abuse@dropbox.com.
I get crap like this all the time through Gmail/Drive and I just ignore it. If it's legitimate and important, the person sending it will most likely contact you.

Thanks for posting that email - I couldn't find an actual contact. Have a good one kind person!
