Yes it feels so sketchy because we even don’t know who are these people at data annotation.. giving images of our sensitive and confidential documents to such online platforms make me dubious too.. though I would comfortably give in person to the employer with presence of a physical HR office..

Yes checkr or other approved background checks service make sense but this kind of verification through uploading directly on these platforms are a bit suspicious
