Hackers got into my Dropbox acct and sent an Invite to my contacts to download a file.

Need some guidance please.   Hackers got into my dropbox acct and sent an Invite to my contacts to download a file.  I've changed password, etc.  Is there a way to send a blast notification to everyone on that contact list that this is a fraudulent dropbox invite?  Actually I rarely use DB.  If I just delete my acct will that prevent any of my contacts from inadvertently clicking on the link?  Open to suggestions regarding how to proceed.  Appreciate the help.
