I can't share any file, getting "banned member" error

Last few days cannot share files, keep getting message "banned member". Why is that? I don't have large traffic, antivirus doesn't see any malware, don't send invites at all, files are my so no copyright problem...

  • It is working now, thanks! But still don't know what triggered ban to avoid similar situations in future.

    Hey there mikrostil - sorry to hear about this.

     

    It sounds like your shared links may have been banned. How long has it been since you first got this error? Did you receive an email from Dropbox informing you about this perhaps?

     

    Let us know more and we'll take it from there.

      Few days... maybe 5 days or so. No, didn't get any mail from dropbox lately except few months ago a message that my space is running low (solved by deleting some unneeded files).
