My sharing has been suspended due to phishing content, even though my files don't have any.

Dear Dropbox Support Team,

I’ve received a notification stating: “We have suspended your activity. Your files may contain phishing elements.”

I tried to solve with online support unsuccessufully.

It’s severely impacting my Dropbox experience. I primarily use your service to synchronize files between family computers and to share files with family and friends.

I can assure you that my files don’t contain phishing elements, and I make a conscious effort to keep my Dropbox space safe and clean.

Please provide further details so I can resolve this issue promptly.

Thank you for your support.

Best regards.

    For my activities being able to share links is important. I’ve already contacted online support, as I mentioned before. Thanks anyway for your help.

    This wont be impacted by this. 

    The only thing you cannot do at present is create shared links.
