I got a suspicious email from Dropbox asking me to upload files

I got a suspicious email from Dropbox asking me to upload files

I know this isn't really a "security and permissions" question, but I just got a suspicious email from "Dropbox" that is concerning.

Is this a scam?  Please note that the HTML has been altered by the dropbox message app, and the message actuall looked like a Dropbox email.

Thanks!

You can upload files securely to Dropbox so that Pippa can see them, even if you don't have an account.
