Hi DebbieSB59, welcome to our Community!
Keep in mind that if your client shared a folder directly with you, then yes, it would take up your Dropbox space.

Have you checked both your plan page, and your Backup page online, to see what you can find about that? Both of these pages will help you, and give you an idea as to what is taking up space inside your account.
Keep me posted!
