Good heavens, someone's using my name for another blog!

Someone in another country, Indonesia I believe, is using my name and almost the same URL as mine for another Google blog.  They aren't me, and my name definitely would not be a common name in their country.  I am guessing to drive traffic to their blog, or for spamming, I don't know, it just seems so wrong.
I already began blogging from my website, but will keep this blog up to perhaps counter the other blog.  Anyone else have this problem?

One of my other namesakes got the ".com" but I got the ".net"

Thank you, Terry, for your comment. Darn. I will have to check that out.

I'm sorry this has happened to you. You put so much time and energy into creating your blog just to have someone claim what isn't theirs. I've had something similar happen. Once I contacted the blogger and asked them to remove my work they made their blog private.
