Given the well known "sweat of the brow" concept in copyright law, this seemed perfectly reasonable to me, and hence the link. Why is this a scam website?
Here is it phrased slightly differently from a different, site
"It has been submitted that originality simply means that the work should originate from the author and that the test is that the author used sufficient skill, labour and judgment in creating the work. However, there is limited to no rules surrounding the test, as originality "must depend largely on the facts of the case and must in each case be very much a question of degree""

Or here it is from wikipedia explaining how the Labour and skill requirement is used to qualify databases as something that can be copyrighter
In order to grant copyright protection to computer databases, UK copyright law recognises the element of labour and skill used in compiling them, even though they are not in truth original works (being entirely derived from existing records),
[17] applying a principle sometimes called the 'Sweat of the Brow' doctrine; they are also protected by
database right
Are you saying that this basic copyright requirement doesn't apply to photographs? Maybe it doesn't, but I have always assumed it did.
as I said, given that all photographs are going to show a degree of skill, judgement etc then they should automatically pass this test, assuming you can prove you were the photographer
