Hey adrianxw, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that since this email came from an official Dropbox domain, it's possible that the email was sent out in error, since this is usually an email sent out when you first create a Dropbox account.
Feel free to ignore the email and let us know if you receive any similar emails in the future.

Hi,
just wanted to chime in. I got the same e-mail. Used dropbox for the past... 12 years or so. Didn't ask for anything. pretty sure theres been an error on your end (Dropbox).
Check it out on your end.

Hey kbftech, would you mind sending us a screenshot of the email that also shows the email of the sender, while hiding any personal info of yours?

Hey everyone!
To those who have flagged this with us, we want to confirm that this is actually a legit Dropbox email, so it's nothing suspicious.
You can either ignore it, as it must have been sent out in error, or even click the "unsubscribe" option at the bottom of the email.
If you want to confirm that your account is secure, you can simply sign into it online, without clicking the links in the email.

Then please add more detail in the email, to tell me what they are talking about? I just got another one 4 hours ago and maybe it is something I don't remember that I did on a specific computer, but I have no clue which computer to look on. A host name would help.
I realized it is not even sending it to the same email address that I have my dropbox account on.
