From the Forbes article on the data leak:
"... little of this appears to be new data. Instead, the researchers say, it’s more a case of compiled records from thousands of previous breaches and data leaks."
Basically, there wasn't a breach last week. The data contained in the MOAB leak is from multiple sources. In the case of Dropbox, it likely contains the data from the 2012 Dropbox hack.
Hi .... There seems to have been a Data Breach affecting several companies including Dropbox. Websites are reporting this issue (link below) but there doesn't seem to be any response from Dropbox.
Any update, or do we need to do anything?

As the link says this was initially reported in 2022 and is basically re-using previously stolen data.
Dropbox responded to that at the time here: https://dropbox.tech/security/a-recent-phishing-campaign-targeting-dropbox
Thanks Mark appreciate the reply.
