YouTube data API audit - Is this legit?

YouTube data API audit - Is this legit?

As it happens every now and then, I've received another email from noreply at youtube.com asking me to fill in a form to audit my use cases of the YouTube API.

I only have one project in the Google API Console, and the sole use case is to connect it to a Telegram bot I own that returns a query made by any user with access to the platform.

However, in the email I received this time, they tell me that I manage shittons of projects with ID numbers that I am unaware of, and none of them correspond to the project ID that I actually manage.

In fact, among the projects they claim I manage, there is one called "I do not remember" and other very strange names that I’ve never even heard of.

The email is official and the form links to the same one they usually send me to fill in every few years.

Anyone did receive recently some similar e-mail? Should I pay attention to this email, or have they completely lost the plot?
