Setting up a MEI CNPJ

if you alluded to this one....

https://www.gov.br/empresas-e-negocios/ … preendedor

It is legit. 

You will need a few other steps beyond setting it up.

You will need to get your State ID, as well as register in your city.

And once in possession of a CNPJ, opening up a banking account. 

Also, you can find your local Branch of the SEBRAE

They can help you to go through the steps

thanks much appreciated. I was referring to the website empreendedorportalmei.org. They want the password to gov.br account. I'll probably check out Sebrae since I have one near by or try the gov.br section you linked.

I strongly suggest you provide ZERO info to empreendedorportalmei.**. any domain name that long usually means it is not legit + no legit site would require you provide a password for another site.... if you did, change your password on the source site.
