I recently received an email from meta asking to pay a refundable $1 charge to verify my age, but i didn't know if it was real. The email came from a do not reply email.meta.com is this email real or fake?

It's genuine. They charge $0.99 to your credit card. It takes up to 3 working days for the bank to verify, then the amount gets refunded. I had to do this when setting up parental controls through the Family Center.
