I'll go look and
thanks. I know there was one guy, who keeps showing up as "someone stole my images" and when we get there and look, he's just another free photo site with some minimal images and everything is links. Especially his links to SS which all have a referral number on them.
not sure if these are what you mean
http://websourc.es/image/shutterstock-photo-
the second one i am a bit questionable, see the top of their home page announcing get high res free image weekly when you register. does this include our shutterstock photos???
Yes the second one is a hit. Not the guy I was looking for but that's not important.
Batch approved: 01/20/2015 is already showing on that site. Must be some kind of Bot, spider or search that's constantly watching SS for new images.

And I see why you thought it was a partner... "In cooperation with Shutterstock" up on the top.
Also right below the "Download File" button it says,
or download 26 million of high-res royalty-free images for $1 and links to DPC.
But the site is just linking and getting credit somehow? Otherwise it's working for SS and DPC for nothing.
Speaking of NOT unexpected... contact on the website.
