For all bloggers regarding Scrapper sites
The following information is not my own...I searched the terms "Adsense scrappers" and came across the following site where someone gave a good example of what scrapper sites are and what they do. I give them all the credit, but am sharing it here with you, in case, like me, your new to this stuff or have never heard of scrapper sites. The site link is below followed by the descriptive quote.
Find the forum this info was found on here
"A scraper site is a site that takes its entire contents from information
'scraped' from other websites, without taking notice of any robots.txt file.
They are often loaded with keywords that are also 'scraped' from the
overture keyword generator or the google sandbox etc (sometime even their
own keyword databases, if they can be bothered to collect this information
themselves.)
Most search engines and PPC companys scrape information from the net, but
any good robot will check for permission in the robots file first.
Traditionally Scraper sites do not adhere to any rules and may lift entire
paragraphs of your content and whats more they always aim to get these pages
indexed by the major 'bread winner' search engines and appear as your
competition (with your content to do it!)
Some scraper are more complexed they actually make a call to 'scripts' that
you own and use the results as there own, this type of deviency happens alot
to webmasters and is something that most my sites have protection against."

great post. Thanks for finding this info. I have seen these types of sites many times but never knew they were called "scrappers" - though I had called them a few choice names myself, scrapper was not one of them :)
