Re-installing AVG

I had a new hard drive installed on my laptop and have down loaded the free AVG antivirus s/w. I received an email apparently from AVG telling me how to re-install the full AVG s/w that was on the laptop before on the old hard drive. A licence number was quoted. Was this a legitimate email as I was prompted to click on a link. To contact AVG I was prompted to click on a link. Looks extremely dodgy to me. The email address was from a no reply address, very useful.
