What's the common / decent thing to do when someone rips your work these days?
Someone has ripped my portfolio site:
http://www.thismanslife.co.uk/
(That's my site)I havent posted a link to the rip on purpose, I want to deal with this idiot myself first.
He's copied the design and just changed it a bit, which is bad enough, but he's also actually used my html/css + even used the some of the same text content I wrote!! Copied but changed my metatags, etc etc... Unbelievable!
What should I do?

Email him/her telling them you have released your birds of prey and they will make short work of devouring him and his family.

Yes, it's pissed me off. Its bead enolugh copying the design, but ripping my code and even content... too far.
"Please feel free to contact if...
* You like our website and want to tell us. "
THAT pisses me off. Fucking ripper! It's MY website!

most people don't like being caught in a lie

Yeah, I emailed him asking him to take it down.
"If you like what you see, give us a call or send an email, we're pretty sound people to be honest!"
Yeah, reeeally "sound"... you fucking ripper!

Ok, I emailed the guy, and I got a read receipt, so I know he's read it - but no reply yet, he has however been making little changes to his site here and there today! So, he's read my email, and thought, fuckit *carries on working on ripped site*...
I might call him.

get a bunch of mates to phone him up at random times and put on different voices/accents and get them to enquire about the "ripped site" that they had been reading about.
