I created a Dropbox account, but I got an email from DocSend asking me to verify my email address.

Hello,

I just signed up for DropBox basic and I got an email from DocSend Support asking me to verify my email. I want to confirm this is a legit email and not a scam before I proceed. When I click on the information the email is from mailto:support@docsend.com

My cousin also set up a DropBox basic account and she sent me a file and I did get an email that she sent it to me. I am going to watch the Get Started videos before I open the document.

Thanks

    Thanks for posting on our Community today, LindaAD

    The email address you mention seems to be legit indeed. However, are you sure that you created a Dropbox account and not a DocSend account instead? 

    Feel free to send me a screenshot of what you see after accessing said account and I can double check this for you (just make sure there’s no personal info showing in your screenshot). You can also send me a visual of the email you received after your friend shared a file with you, while hiding your email address.

    Keep me updated!

    Hi again, LindaAD! Sorry for the nudge. 

    Were you able to sort this out in the end? 

    Let me know, if you’re still getting any emails that you’d like me to look into.
