Whenever i try to share a file i get the message "Can't share file. We’ve interrupted your sharing activity because your files might contain phishing content."

 

All files shared are trusted PDFs.

 

If anyone tries to open the link to the files they also get an error message that says "That didn't work for some reason. If it's a fluke, it might work to refresh the page. You can also ask us for help."
