I received a suspicious email by no-reply@em-s.dropbox.com to view a document - is it legit?

I received an email from no-reply@em-s.dropbox.com with a link to this document that's asking me to sign in to my microsoft account. It's blurry and looks dodgy as sin. Any ideas if this is a scam? ...

And yes, this is the page I'm directed to when I click on the link in the email.

Hey Fmabs, thanks for the additional info.

 

I would definitely advise you not to provide any credentials, just in case it is a spam email.

 

If you know the sender, I would suggest reaching out to them directly, to ask for more info, without clicking anything further.
