Airbnb asking for a copy of our passports before checking in?

Has anyone ever experienced this before? We are flying to Spain next week and one of our Airbnb hosts has asked us to fill in a form before our arrival. The name,address, passport # doesn't really bother me, but asking for a photo of my passport seems strange. I've stayed at a couple dozen Airbnbs over the years including some in Spain and never had this requested of me. I'm not sure I feel comfortable sending a stranger everything they need to steal my identity.

Am I being paranoid or does this seem strange to anyone else?
