I have been in a similar situation, and I have some suggestions for you:
1. Report to Google, but know that after some time, if they remove the copied content, they will get back in the search engine results.
2. Report to the bingo affiliate programs – very effective as they can even hold money from the thief.
3. Check if there are other copied sites within this domain and contact the webmasters to ask them to report too.
Thanks for the suggestions Marcelo, meantime I contacted the website owner to remove the copied content which he just referred “it is not stolen content – the original link to your website was there” – I don’t know why one thinks to re-parse an RSS feed doesn’t mean stoling someone else’s content. My content is removed from that website, and meantime I have found another familiar entries:
hxxxp://onlinebingoballs.com/2008/07/bingolol/ and hxxxp://onlinebingoballs.com/2008/07/freebeebingo/- luckydabberbingo.com – if I remember correctly this is Casinobonusguys’s website.
It is possible that I can find other familiar websites, from which this A**hole has stolen, but that’s why I thought to post it and everyone can check it out, the list will be long I guess.
My next step will be to contact this guy’s affiliate managers, maybe this way he will learn that republishing content(parts) is content-thievery.
