Why do my emails begin with "HI **bleep**"?

All of my emails from Dropbox start with the greeting: HI **bleep**. For example, I received one today. This is literally the copy:

Hi **bleep**,

A new web browser just signed in to your Dropbox account. To help keep your account secure, let us know if this is you.

 

It makes you look like thoughtless idiots but its fun to forward to other people.

    Hi dropvibe, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    If your emails begin like that, then you've actually changed your 'name' on the account to be those words. 

     

    You can change this on this page on your account.

     

    If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
