Dropbox logging attempts

Today I've received 3 mails with a security code for signing-in which wasn't a result of me trying to sign in to Dropbox, I gather that someone has my Dropbox password which was since changed, and used it to try and login.

I would note that my password is a >12 characters random sequence stored in a password manager app and is unique to my Dropbox.

Has it happened to anyone else recently? Any chance of getting more info about this incident? (IP Addresses the attempts were made from, user-agent, anything else...)

    That information is not available. The only information available would be for successful login attempts. You can review the active web sessions and linked devices, as well as change your password, on your Security page.
