Is Turing.com legit or scam
-
Tried to google but found both opinions !! The site turing.com does not has phone number but even phone number can be faked. I tried to see the address on google maps but the location does not has any sign for the building !! I am looking to work remotely but I dont know if this company legit or not ?

It should be not bad if VT rating is correct: VirusTotal[^]
They ask for ID so they want to get full name, address and phone. Is it possible to scam me from these information ?

The ID bit, yes. These 'interview' scammers will totally have you hold your ID up so they can steal the ssn (or other special numbers for other countries) and use those for fraud. The common knowledge pieces of information don't really matter (name/address/phone). It's being able to pair the name and birthday with the bit of more secret information (ssn or w/e) that enables identity fraud. If they don't ask you to do skills assessment and personality tests... Basically, if the interview seems like a pleasant conversation and not an arduous interrogation, it's probably a scam. Heh. /s Edit: Just to be clear - I'm not talking specifically about turing.com - I have no idea.

For other countries what they can do with these information: name, address, ID number, birthday ?

Open a bank account in your name? Start taking out loans that you end up paying? Scammers know what they are doing - for example: Clarkson stung by fraud stunt | Scams | The Guardian[^] and Identity theft | ICO[^]
