Amazing job on the screenshot, thank you brzoserr!
I can confirm that this email is indeed from an official Dropbox domain. It might have been automatically sent by mistake.
If you managed to sign into your account, and checked that everything is the way it should be, then feel free to ignore it.
Hello,
My email was hacked and they got ahold of my dropbox and deleted the account. I just got my email account back yesterday and when I tried to log into my dropbox the only option I had was to create a new account. I believe my account was deleted. Is there a way to recover my account?

You can try contacting Support but, typically, once an account has been deleted, it cannot be recovered.
Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for sign in issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.

Understood. There should be a process especially for upgraded accounts for a situation like this. How do I contact support? Is there an email?- Mark
