IANAL, but I just found a site that has identical content as a recent blog post of mine.

Exhibit A: (the thief) http://www.vevz.com/the-year-that-was-2008-a-rundown-of-the-major-financial-events-that-rocked-the-nation

Exhibit B: (my site) http://www.mybanktracker.com/articles/2009/01/08/the-year-that-was-2008-a-rundown-of-the-major-financial-events-that-rocked-the-nation/

He even forgot to remove my links at the bottom of his page.

I already sent an email to abuse@bluehost.com (his DNS points there), but should I be throwing around the DMCA word yet? How do you file a DMCA complaint?

Completely new territory for me...
