Storage space total is wrong

Dropbox says I'm "Using 3.21 GB of 3.25 GB storage". I've deleted files and checked the total in my Dropbox folder and it's 280MB, which I believe as I only have PDFs, Word and XL files, and a few photos. What gives? Dropbox keeps pestering me to upgrade when I should have plenty of space! Help!

    @Rich you're right, there's a huge file there (that I don't recognize 🤔), thanks for pointing me in the right direction! 👍
