Hi,
Recently I stopped being able to join shared folders and when I share I folder myself I get this error: "Can't share file. We’ve suspended your sharing activity because of a violation of Dropbox’s Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy, and Terms of Service or Services Agreement.". I've been using this Dropbox account rightfully for about 15 years, is there any way I can fix this problem?
Thank you.
Happy to hear that, @MrSuddenJoy!
Feel better and enjoy your weekend!

This is happening to me too.
@Hannah, Megan or any other community moderators at Dropbox - please can you raise a ticket for me too and get this fixed. Very frustrating unable to share. I've been using Dropbox rightfully as far as I know. Thanks.
@wesc, please check your email address and reply back to my email. I just logged a ticket for you.
Thanks!

Thanks. Email received and replied too.
@Dropbox Staff-
I am receiving the same error message w/ my personal Dropbox account. Can you assist in identifying cause/resolution?
I've read the Help section/link referenced earlier and unsure of what the cause would be.
Thanks!
Hi @BanditLive, happy Monday!
I just created a ticket on my end for you. We'll take it from there, and investigate further.
Thanks a bunch!

I'm blocked from creating links to share.
The message that appears tells me that it's due to a violation of terms. No further explanation provided.
On my plan (free) it appears that this is the appropriate forum to raise an issue for support. Please can someone explain how I've violated terms as It's not obvious to me?
Kind regards,
Me

Yes please log a ticket. I have scanned through the list:
None of these stand out to me as applicable to my account.
Please let me know if you can add any specificity to the reason for my sharing rights to be blocked.
Kind regards,
Hey @anotherguywiththesameproblem - sorry to jump in here, but I just sent you an email to have a further look internally, so please have a look at your inbox and we'll take it from there.
