Dropbox Plan Professional Are you a Team Member or Admin? No Do you have access to the email linked to the account? Yes Are there any devices connected to your Dropbox account? Phone, tablet, work laptop Question or Issue A few days ago, My Dropbox account was hacked by an individual calling themselves Samuel Shimb (see screenshot below). They managed to get access to my account even with 2FA enabled (via SMS)! I want to make people aware of this and the fact that, when I raised this to Dropbox's chat and Support people, they downplayed it and said they's pass it along to their colleagues. Even when I mentioned in my communication with them that I had 2FA enabled, but did not receive any 2FA OTP, in their responses, they still went ahead to say that I must enable 2FA. I have been asking for escalations without any assistance on this matter. I am a paying Dropbox Professional customer, and I want to know how someone accessed my account outside of the normal authentication flow. Even if the hacker managed to obtain my Dropbox password (which I was not using anywhere else by the way), I want to know how they bypassed the 2FA. There were no indications in my GMail inbox of someone trying to reset my Dropbox password (so the hacker did not gain access to my email account first). I was able to login normally using my Dropbox account even after the attack. This has resulted in sensitive information being exposed to an attacker whose intentions I do not know, including work files. However, Dropbox staff have been downplaying this isse. Maybe because this could be a vulnerability on the side of Dropbox and they won't admit that.380Views1like11CommentsFermeture Dropbox Password
Suite Ă l'email informant de la fermeture prochaine de Dropbox Password en octobre, j'ai suivi la procĂ©dure pour exporter mes mots de passe au format csv. Malheureusement, lorsque j'essaie d'importer le ficher cdv dans "Mots de passe" sur Mac, j'obtiens le message d'erreur suivant : « Mots de passe » nâa pas pu importer de mots de passe depuis le fichier CSV car celui-ci ne contient pas de libellĂ©s pour les colonnes." J'ai consultĂ© le fichier csv, les libellĂ©s des colonnes sont pourtant bien prĂ©sents... Une idĂ©e de la marche Ă suivre ? Merci đ129Views1like3CommentsDropbox Passwords to store history of all old passwords.
I wish Dropbox Passwords stored password history. Why? 1) sometimes you update the password directly in Dropbox Passwords, only to find out that the website requires the old password to accept the update. 2) The browser plugin makes a mistake and updates the password, but you miss the singular-chance to "undo' the save, and end up with a record of the answer to a security question as your password & not the password itself. 3) you're fighting with picky password rules on a website and it accepts a password you gave it, but you've been regenerating them over and over, assumed the updated would fail because it took a moment to process, but then... as you've just regenerated the password you see that the password you just trashed was actually accepted. Having access to the history would solve all of these and more. ^^^ This I yoinked from a thread on this 2021 that has since been closed, and I'm restoring it as I'd still like to see this feature implemented. At the very least, I'd like that the app indicate when you last UPDATED the password, not just the date you ADDED the password to the app, which is often less meaningful.133Views1like2CommentsUpdate (not reset) password on phone
I went to Dropbox on my PC and changed:reset my password. No problems there, all good. Now I want to get on my phone and update it to match. How do I do that? I do not want to RESET it again; I just did that on PC. I just want to UPDATE the pw to match. Cannot find any instructions on that.Solved4.9KViews1like3CommentsNot receiving verification email, how can I verify my account?
