My sharing activity has been suspended

Hi

I have received the following message trying to share. "We’ve suspended your sharing activity because of a violation of Dropbox’s Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy, and Terms of Service or Services Agreement."

How do you resolve this. I haven't done anything in the list of terms that says will cause this.

    Hoping someone can help. I've been getting this message when trying to share files: We’ve suspended your sharing activity because of a violation of Dropbox’s Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy, and Terms of Service or Services Agreement.
    I have no clue why.

    Thanks

      Hi KFit, let's see what we can find together on this!

       

      Based on the error you received, it sounds like your sharing ability might have been temporarily suspended. You can find out more info at this Help Center article.

       

      Have you recently shared a link which could have been downloaded many times, or to a large file?

       

      This will help me to assist further!

        I have not been able to share for some time. I've been trying to share from my dropbox for months now.
