That it was blocked by Bitdefender means you are safe.
The phishing page still exists and is still unsafe for other people, who are not using Bitdefender or some other equally capable security solution, and if you tried to go to the page again Bitdefender should block it again.
But, your attempt to use it was stopped by Bitdefender so it kept you safe.
As a general rule: Never put your credentials (username or password) into a page unless you 100% absolutely know you intended to be doing it and should be doing it on that page. Never click on a link in an email or on a random website and then enter your credentials if you are asked for them. You should also enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) for any online service you use, doing so will greatly enhance your safety.
