I didn't sign up for dropbox and can't cancel it or find associated email. Everything is greyed out

I never signed up for this service.  None of my email accounts show a subscription.  When I try to delete the account, everything is greyed out.  I am unable to see the email associated with the account because again everything is greyed out.  There are no files saved on the account and I believe this is fraud especially since there is no way to contact customer support directly to have this resolved.  I wouldn't have known if I didn't all of the sudden see this charge that I didn't recognize.

    Hi Tawfee52, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    If you're able to post on the community, this means that you have a Dropbox account under an email address that you use.

     

    If you don't want the Dropbox account, you can login on the site (resetting your password first if need be), and then delete the account.

     

    If you need any further assistance, please let me know.

      I can tell you didn't read my entire post in which I stated EVERYTHING is greyed out.  I cannot select delete or any other feature.  It also shows I don't have any files because the account has NEVER been used because I didn't sign up for it.  The account I was able to log in to is the one I just registered when I found the charge on my bill.

        It isn't possible for every option on the account page to be greyed out. 

         

        Could you attach a screenshot showing what you're describing, while hiding any emails or personal info?
