Duplicate site?

I did a Google search of my name and found that there is another site with a different url that is using my same content and everything.
Why would someone create a site and upload the same files? It even has my email on it. It looks identical to my site.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Maybe it's a caching service, you can also check the domain owner via whois.

I saw this happen once where an 'SEO Service' was trying to win some business... but I have a feeling this is actually really bad for SEO.
You could lodge a DMCA copyright infringement notice with the hosting provider. I believe they're obligated to remove it.

Might just be some kid looking at your code.
I remember getting an email from someone back in early /pre- NT days because I'd done exactly that - downloaded someone's code and put it on a server I had access to, so I could pull it apart and try and figure out how it worked.
I was too naive to realise it had stats code in it and was reporting from a weird place.
After a polite email I explained my stupidity and took out the offending tracking code and thanked him for his work and his understanding...
