This website is a scam. They sent me a message in Facebook Messenger saying Facebook would delete by business account unless I filed a complaint on their website. I did not click into their form to see what information they requested because it was clearly a scam from the beginning. The name in Facebook Messenger was Kamila Sabolova and it says it's a verified account but it's probably a scam too. Don't give them your information, they're not really Facebook or Meta.
