Not sure if this applies to your situation, but I was getting the same error message when trying to point my domain to Substack. This is what Squarespace support said:

The Squarespace Defaults need to be removed first before you can point the domain away from Squarespace.

Follow these steps to point your domain:  

Open your domains dashboard: https://account.squarespace.com/domains

Click the domain name you’d like to point.

Click DNS.

In the Squarespace Defaults section, click the trash can to delete them.

In the Custom records section, click Add Record. 

Enter the information given to you by your provider and click Save. Repeat this for each record your provider gives you. 

Test the connection by visiting your domain in a new private or incognito window.
