    <description>Hey &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1226882"&gt;@DB_User31&lt;/a&gt;, let's look into this together!&amp;nbsp;
&lt;BR /&gt; 
&lt;BR /&gt; Have you made sure that the email address you received this email from is the same one as the one tied to your Dropbox account?&amp;nbsp;
&lt;BR /&gt; 
&lt;BR /&gt; It sounds as if you might have two accounts, so we might need to check and exclude that option first.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;BR /&gt; 
&lt;BR /&gt; Feel free to check on your end and let me know.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I have the free dropbox account.&amp;nbsp; I received an email saying that my account will be closed on Thursday because I haven't used my account in over a year.&amp;nbsp; This is crazy.&amp;nbsp; I am in my account everyday, working with files.&amp;nbsp; I stay signed into my account and do not sign out.&amp;nbsp; I am signed in on 3 different devices.&amp;nbsp; The email says I have been signed out on all devices in preparation for account closure.&amp;nbsp; As far as I can tell, I am still signed in on all devices.&amp;nbsp; The email says it could be contacting me regarding an unused account, but the email is correct for the account that I am using.&amp;nbsp; Do I need to sign out of my account and back in for it to register that my account is active?&amp;nbsp; Wouldn't adding , removing, and editing files show activity?&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;As I said in my post, the email address that was referenced IS the email address on the account that I am using.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If it helps, here are photos of the email I received and the address that pops up when I hover over the link in the email.&amp;nbsp; The "microransom.us" in the link address makes me think that this is not an actual Dropbox email, but a phishing email.&amp;nbsp; It's very well done.&amp;nbsp; The only red flag that I see is the sense of urgency.&amp;nbsp; Sent on Tuesday, closing account on Thursday.&amp;nbsp; I am concerned that whomever sent the email will be able to seize my Dropbox account, encrypt my files, and demand a ransom.&amp;nbsp; What safety measures does Dropbox have to prevent this?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Hey &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1226882"&gt;@DB_User31&lt;/a&gt;, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that is definitely not coming from Dropbox since it's not from an 
&lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/security/official-domains" target="_blank"&gt;official domain&lt;/A&gt; of ours and you should avoid clicking on any links contained in the email.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;BR /&gt; 
&lt;BR /&gt; You can see how to protect yourself again phishing 
&lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/security/phishing-virus-protection" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/A&gt; and report this incident by forwarding the complete email to 
&lt;STRONG&gt;abuse@dropbox.com&amp;nbsp;&lt;/STRONG&gt;
&lt;BR /&gt; 
&lt;BR /&gt; I hope this helps!</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi There!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thank you.&amp;nbsp; I shared the email with my tech department.&amp;nbsp; The email actually came from them.&amp;nbsp; It was a test to see if I could be tricked into clicking on an unsafe link in a phishing email.&amp;nbsp; I did not click on the link, so I passed the test!&amp;nbsp; Thanks for the help.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
