Registered with the FCA
This firm is registered as a small payment institution. That is a lighter regime than full FCA authorisation, applied to smaller payment firms, and safeguarding of customer money is optional at this size.
Website, phone number and address
Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.
