File access request on a shared file
I got a notification where someone is asking for access to a file that I made so that anyone can download. Why and how does this happen?
I still have trouble understanding this, thoughâŠI tried making alt accounts to try and recreate the same scenario, but I havenât found any ways others could just submit an access request vs just downloading it.
could this be something that happens between the free version and a paid version?

Dropbox Community ModeratorCould you send us a screenshot of what you see when you load the link on an incognito window Silentcartoonist24 ?
If you could also include a screenshot of the email and the notifications you got about this, I'd appreciate it.
Apart from that, can you clarify the anatomy of the URL of the shared link at hand? Are we talking about http://Dropbox.com/s/, http://Dropbox.com/sh/, or http://Dropbox.com/scl/ ?
