Yes indeed many people have heard about it, because shutterstock is one of the top microstock sites in the world. If you have read this forum before asking you would have noticed that by yourself.
Yes it is standard for Shutterstock to request a proof of your id. You are about to sign a business contract with an agency selling your photos and paying you commission, so it is reasonable to ask for your identity proof.
If you don't like that it's your choice not to have business with them.
