Did you put your resume public because if so you'll get a lot of headhunters/scams.

I learned this the hard way when I was desperate to get out of my Whole Foods job in 2018 for undisclosed reasons and I was getting tons. An accounting firm in CT (I'm in NJ) calling me multiple times, Aflac trying to get me to apply for a sales admin job despite no qualifications, an insurance place halfway across the state contacting me that turned out to have been relentlessly ripped apart in Google reviews

If you did then yeah, you made yourself open for stuff like this to find you. The fact that they want it done through Google Docs and are upfront asking for your driver's license and SSN is a massive red flag and you should absolutely not go for it. No address is a huge red flag too; a legitimate job would have you fill an actual application (not Google Docs) and wouldn't be asking for personal identification stuff like that right out of the gate with nothing else to back up their legitimacy, especially with an offer that sounds too good to be true like that. They're definitely trying to steal your identity.
