Usually content scrapers are using other people's content on sites that they have plastered with GoogleAdSense ads.

It seems they've removed your content, but there's plenty of other blog scraping being done there.<br /><br />You can help fight this by reporting their domain name as spam to GoDaddy, as well as emailing their hosting company, security@hostgator.com.Meaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00667295056598218643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-250349507453876622009-10-27T22:49:38.865-04:002009-10-27T22:49:38.865-04:00You should definitely contact whoever is hosting t...You should definitely contact whoever is hosting that site.
