You can always verify your account by the phone number. That way, they will cut you a little slack.
Facebook implement a policy called "Acceptable use"
They can set limits to how often you can use a feature.
If you use it too often, they can stop you from using it for a while. Not only is this to stop you from spamming other users, it's there to provide protection to facebook (too many requests can bring the server to its knees, which means facebook goes down).
I suggest you wait for the feature to be unlocked (should only be a short while), and then tone it down on the usage. This includes reseting passwords and or changing any information like your email as well.
Here is all the info I could find on why this is happening. Hope it helps.

If you have received a Facebook password reset email that you did not request, it is likely that someone accidentally entered your email address or username when attempting to log in to their account. This often happens if you have a popular username or email address. As long as you do not click the link contained in the email, no action will be taken, and your account will remain secure.
However, if you receive a second email confirming that your password was reset, please visit the our Security section and take steps to secure your account. /help/?faq=17511

Tip: For security reasons, we limit the number of password resets that can be requested for an account in a short period of time.
