Hacked account sending spam emails to contacts to steal information

Hi, my account has been hacked and it is sending scam emails to all my contacts. The emails are sent by a noreply@dropbox email address and say that there is a document shared by me (with my full name) which contains a link to access all my contact’s information (most of them are clients and there s more than a thousand). I can’t get in contact with Dropbox support as I have a personal account. Any suggestion ?
Thank you
