I received a strange email. How do I file a report to dropbox?

Hi NM5, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
This is a valid email from Dropbox, since it comes from an official domain.
Most likely, the email was sent to your account in error, so you can safely ignore it.
If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

I received this email too on an old account "ATTENZIONE: ti consigliamo di completare la configurazione del tuo account Dropbox il prima possibile" and it seems legit looking the headers.
"I tuoi file sono quasi pronti per essere caricati"
But please avoid doing this !
Why should we get an "ATTENTION" warning without any reason?
This is scary in some ways and confusing as it seems a new account was just created and seems a hacking happened.
Kind regards.

Just to bring awareness to it, saying something like this is scary/confusing as well (emphasis mine).
This is a valid email from Dropbox, since it comes from an official domain.
It's extremely easy to spoof an email address/domain. To say that an email is valid just because it appears to be from a valid email address could, at best, give a false sense of security, and at worst, cause someone to click and enter credentials on something they shouldn't.
