Re: Is the email: em-s.dropbox.com legitimate? [Answer: Yes]

Hello, 

 

I was checking my emails and came across an email from dropbox, the email body looks 100% legit no spelling mistakes no numbers either, but the address looks questionable, the email is no-reply@em-s.dropbox.com. The email subject is "top strategies to maximize your potential", the email body seems to be about dropbox cloud storage (for free), exercise for 20 minutes, free password manager and turning on camera uploads if that's any help to anyone. 

 

I've tried searching here and I've tried searching the email address on google but haven't found anything on it, so I'm wondering if it's legit before I end up blocking the email.

    Hi SausageRoll111, I'd be more than happy to help! 

     

    If you take a look at this Help Center article about the official Dropbox domains, you'll see that em-s.dropbox.com is an official Dropbox domain. 

     

    Therefore, the informative email seems to be coming from us, indeed.

     

    I hope this helps!

    I received email from the same address yesterday. Logged in and there was nothing waiting (nor was I expecting anything).  Scam?

      Hey cosmodoc, thanks for letting us know about this.

       

      The em-s.dropbox.com domain is actually one of our official Dropbox domains; what's the email you received about?

       

      Can you send us a screenshot?
