Received 3 2FA emails in one minute, but 2FA was not enabled on my account
Hi all,
A strange thing happened today, I've received 3 emails in sequence with content:
Hi [MY FIRST NAME],
Finish signing in to Dropbox with this one-time security code...

Hello,
I've received two emails on 19/12/2022 requesting to finish singing up by providing the one-time password.
- I haven't logged in or used my Dropbox account for more than an year
- My password is very complicated and was generated by LastPass and is not shared between any accounts
- I've already conducted all counter-measures such as changing password (I already have 2FA turned on).
- Lastly, I didn't use Dropbox on 19/12/2022 in anyway
My one and single concern is - Did someone manage to enter correct credentials to my account, or was a glitch/bug from DropBox?
This is very important for me as it's close to the dates LastPass was breach and I need to understand if the email from DropBox was a legitimate login attempt with my password or a bug from DropBox.
Please don't simply suggest to change password/2FA as I have already done that.
My only question is if someone managed to actually enter my correct password to DropBox on 19/12/2022.
We can further elaborate over email if required.
Thank you,
Michael
