Hey adrianxw, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that since this email came from an official Dropbox domain, it's possible that the email was sent out in error, since this is usually an email sent out when you first create a Dropbox account.

Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there.
No, the email came to the same email address as I use for Dropbox. Continued on next reply.
Hey Hannah,
Here's a screenshot of the mail. Could it be a phishing mail?
The email address it was sent to is the same as the one used for my current Dropbox account.
