Hi Eyad_dawalibi, thanks for providing these details. I’d recommend getting in contact with our support team directly to look into this matter in more detail by opening an incognito/private browsing window, while not signed into your account, and accessing this link.

 

From there you should be able to contact support. Make sure to enter the same email you use to login to Dropbox.
