Why are certain people listed as my Contacts?
Hello, Why would these 3 people be listed as Contacts for my Account? Also why does it show that they viewed my recently downloaded Tax Returns that I shared to my Tax Accountant?

Hey gpete1977, sorry to jump in here, but I just want to mention that these names are not real people or accounts whatsoever. They show up the first time you navigate to the DocSend page.
They act like placeholders of real people (as an example) if you were to use DocSend to send a doc of yours for collaboration via DocSend.
This is also why their email addresses aren't working.
I hope this helps clarify matters and please let us know if you have any follow up questions.

Hi Walter,
Thanks so much for jumping in. I kind of suspected that, until It showed that all 3 people viewed my File. That is rather alarming!

Not to be a Smart Alec, however I guess my Follow-up question is why show within your website that 3 Fake people have viewed my Files, thereby alarming a Novice like me?
Again, my sincere Thanks for everyone responding back to me until I seem to have gotten a valid response from Walter.
