Abue you can earn free space by being an active contributor of the community forum: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Community-Announcements/How-to-get-more-space-on-a-Dropbox-Basic-free-account/td-p/238053
If you then become a Super User, you can get a LOT more space: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Community-Announcements/Our-New-Super-User-program-is-live/m-p/239241#M53

9 years agoMark is 100% correct regarding this. Dropbox has and continues to remove space from accounts where referrals are suspicious in nature. The referral system is intended for one person to refer another. Using it to gain extra space by referring yourself goes against its intended use. At a minimum you can have your space reduced. At worst, and it has happened, you can lose your entire account.
Do not attempt to game the referral system or you risk losing your account.
