First of all, the letter you have received contains a plastic package that looks like the picture on the left.
This package should be sealed with an untamperable sticker with a unique number. The number is not recorded anywhere else.
This security feature provides evidence that your letter has not been replaced or yet revealed and mitigates the Man-in-the-Middle attack.
The pictures on the left show (i) an uncompromised sticker and (ii) a broken sticker to illustrate the difference.
As you can see, any attempt to tamper with the sticker results in the security of the letter being compromised.

On the left side of these paper sheets within your personal letter you can see your BTC and ETH public addresses. This is open information, which you may share publicly to receive funds into your crypto wallets.

Anyone who has your private key can immediately withdraw all the funds from your wallet.
