Thats pretty bad advice, and 100% false.

1. You can file a DMCA, its up to whoever gets the DMCA to either file a counter DMCA claim notifying their web hosting that they haven't ripped anything off.

2. Contact Google and provide them all the information you can: http://www.google.com/support/bin/st....cs&ts=1114905

3. Your site is pretty large, if they have a clone of it you might have some other issues such as a stolen database backup, or some other lapse in security.
