Has ripped off my old site design, well the middle part of it and is displaying eCOGRA's Play It Safe Seal, next to reviews for casinos such as Black Widow

Checking out the source code, confirms it even still as he has left links and references to onlinecasinoreviewer.com

The whois details are:

he zhiqiang
ZhangDian RenMinXi road, YiXiangYuan
ZiBo, Shandong 255049
China

Not happy.

This webmaster has also lifted some of my old content such as this:

xxxhttp://www.bonusky.com/Poker/32_Red_Poker/ - No Aff Tags
xxxxhttp://www.bonusky.com/Webmasters/ - My very old webmasters page - Some of it has been changed but you can see my site mentioned on this page

It appears all the banners either have no tags or are to lovely places such as Club Dice

Looks like I will be having to do a DMCA to his domain registrar and host tomorrow.

The Jackpot City banner on the home page there has an affiliate tag:

Bastard!

Just for good measure I've reported the abuse of the eCOGRA seal to that organisation as well.

Update - eCOGRA is on this and trying to contact the so-called webmaster involved, but apparently most of the links are not working and it looks pretty old.

If you find out who this cretin is and how he/she can be contacted eCOGRA would like to know more.

In the meantime I have passed on that affiliate tag.

Why wouldn't eCogra just simply contact Jackpot City and find out from them who the affiliate is? I posted his/her affiliate tag above.

The site is registered to an individual in China. Hence I am having to go down the DMCA route as my first point of action.

I will be contacting Jackpot City though as well, with a view to getting his account closed and locked down with them.

rubyroyal has been spending a lot of time in the forumrubyroyal has been spending a lot of time in the forum
Thats no good Webzcas, would get in touch with the aff program manager, see what can be done.

We had a similar thing happen to our sister site, Roulette69.
We picked it up almost 2 months ago when they launched their new casino site. It amazes me, its so blatant its scary!

Take a look at our casino: https://www.roulette69.com/default/casino

Now, head over to Sunderlands casino: http://www.sunderlands.co.uk/Casino/...stPopular.aspx

They pretty much copied our entire layout and design, even some of the functionality i.e. when launching a game, a preload log in screen pops up. When playing the game, they copied our exact layout.. lol.

We never really did anything about it. The team took it as a compliment actually and moved on..

Any suggestions

That's all the more reprehensible because Sunderlands is a well-established UK bookie firm....and the software provider is Microgaming!
