I have received a letter in the post stating I am entitled to a shortfall payment as I was part of the 'buy holiday' scheme between 2018-2022 where the pay temporarily dipped below National minimum wage. It's asking me to fill in a form to claim this but no form was included, also the contact email looks a bit suspicious n.pay12@bt.com. My old employee number and my full name is on the letter.
Could someone please confirm if this is a scam?

I got the same letter and it had my employment number on
Is this a scam 😞

@Wishes_20 is this genuine?

If it's got employee numbers on it either it's not a scam or they've had a data breach

Thanks for flagging this too, @Wishes_20.
I've also popped you over a private message with a few more details on how we can get this checked out!

I also have had the same letter, also minus the form, but has the correct employee number.
Seems odd the amount of info the letter asks for including N.I number.
What's the best course of action to take?
Thanks
