First things first, is the letter genuine?.
Call and find out.
A few years back people on benefits started getting letters asking for bank details to pay them their benefits.
Mse posts, citizens advice etc thought it was a scam as address and number were all wrong.
Months and months later it was found to be a genuine letter for claimants being paid in post office account as such.

I would never trust a letter from any bank, company, or Hmrc etc.
Always confirm details with a real person via a phone number you have looked up.

Good call.

That said, the return address should be verifiable without having to phone them.

I'd still call them... in these times you can never be too cautious.

Does the letter have a Nigerian postmark?
