I keep receiving Emails in my regular, personal Email like the one below (hundreds of them!), from people I don't know AND I've never used, wanted, or needed any "Collaborators" - AND there are also a LOT of names and email addresses listed in my box as current Collaborators, whom I don't know and never asked to collaborate. AND, how did all these people get my name and Email address in this context?

Sorry to ask such a 'stupid' question, but do I have certain Settings that I need to change or what do I do to ensure more privacy and unwanted collaborators??  Thank you!!   Jim

Hi Jim, 

Welcome to the Box Community!
 
This would be something our Box Support team would like to investigate with you and may require specific account information. 
 
I've gone ahead and created a ticket for you so that an agent can work directly with you on looking into this. Please check your email for details.

Thanks for your patience!
