Ransomware hacked my dropbox ID
I recently suffered a ransomware attack that ends up corrupting my computer and dropbox files.
Even I cannot login with my ID [removed per the Dropbox Community Guidelines]
When I first logged in...

I never changed my account.
This(tenrewop@**bleep**.li) is not the email address I changed. Currently, my computer is caught in ransomware. I think the hacker intentionally changed it to another ID about 5-6 hours ago. So, if I log in with my Google ID now, i am asked to create a new Dropbox ID, and the 2TB capacity i originally subscribed to is gone.
For now, I have changed the password of the Google ID account linked to the dropbox.
Please respond quickly
