Hi,
I opened this urgent ticket last week (nr 23648760). My account has been hacked and is sending spam emails from a Dropbox address to all my contacts (over a thousand customers). The ticket has been prioritised but I haven’t received an update regarding its resolution. Is the problem solved ? Is there any action required on my side ?
Thank you

        Hey MarcoPaolo, I checked your ticket number, and it seems that an agent has replied back this past Wednesday. 

         

        Would you be able to access your Community-linked email address directly, and check for the email there?
