Thanks for bringing this to our attention, nraman.

That doesn't seem to be a Dropbox email indeed, but just to confirm, is the sender of those emails for sure the no-reply@dropbox.com address?

Even if that's the case, if you suspect that these are suspicious emails, forward them to abuse@dropbox.com and if our team finds a violation of the Dropbox Acceptable Use Policy (such as phishing, malware, or spam), they'll take immediate action.

Thanks again for sharing this with us and let me know if you have any questions.
