var timestamp = Convert.ToInt64(dateFrom);

            // Format our new DateTime object to start at the UNIX Epoch
            System.DateTime dateTime = new System.DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0);

            // Add the timestamp (number of seconds since the Epoch) to be converted
            dateTime = dateTime.AddSeconds(timestamp);

It seems that your timestamp actually contains number of milliseconds, not seconds:

new DateTime(1970,1,1,0,0,0,0,System.DateTimeKind.Utc).AddMilliseconds(1593339378252)
// on my machine - 28-Jun-20 10:16:18 AM

You can use var dateTimeOffset = DateTimeOffset.FromUnixTimeMilliseconds(yourValue);

For more information, also look at the documentation
