Hey, As most of you probably know, i own http://scriptowl.com I recently came across http://piola.gratishost.com who have used my logo + images without permission. I've already contacted the owner and have not herd a response. If any of you have any suggestions, i'll appreciate it. Regards
If you own those images, then contact google and get them banned from Adsense, which they are using on the site. You might want to wait 48 hours for a reply. But frankly, that is such a blatant rip off, personally I would go directly to google without delay and have them banned. You will need to prove that you own the copyright to those images.
Man that is beyond shady, I would just email the host asking them to take down the site or face legal action, they will take care of the matter..
Hey Drop the guy an email again, use his whois contact details too, and tell him what you are about to do, ask for some compensation, if he has no money (most likely) then have him write 10 articles for you or what ever.. but tell him you are about to cancell his adsense, could be the guy bought the dite on DP and is new to the game, you never know..
I agree. Drop them a cease and desist. I like to send one by email and also by certified mail (but I'm a lawyer and can't help myself). Then go to the host, the registrar and Google and follow the instructions on their site for takedown notice under the DMCA. Good luck.

Sorry to hear about your issue, I had that problem several times with my last business. Don't wait to hear back from them, contact their registrar right away!
