i'm a professional DMCA agent.
this means i file DMCA takedown requests (tens of thousands of them) for a living...

DMCA only applies to copyrighted materials. I think the OP is more concerned about Trademark infringement. I think the suggestion to complain to the registrar is a good one.

Looks like it was done already:

In theory, yes, DMCA applies only to copyrighted materials, but in the case of site copying / phishing, having a registered trademark can help move things along and the two types of infringement can be referenced in the same take down letter.

I just wrote an article (yesterday) about this on my infosec website - http://nopasara.com/2600/how-to-shut-down-a-phishing-site/ - which explains several ways of dealing with phishing / scammer sites. Hope you find it useful
