Dropbox using 17.1GB for Standard files that I cannot see in my account

I have Dropbox basic plan of 18GB, 16GB I earned from refer a friend. Now my dropbox account is saying I am using 17.1GB out of 18GB even though in my dropbox I have only created 1 folder with no files in it(I am using 0 bytes). I have no shared folder in my account and  I cannot see any other file in my account so why dropbox is showing that 17.1GB is being used by Standard files?
