Default How to Identify a Scraper Site

First of all, apologies if this is requesting stuff that is already out there. I couldn't find the answer that i was looking for.

I sort of know that scraper sites exist and I've got a vague idea what they do. But I have no idea how to identify them and I don't really know what the impact on our sites would be.

I was playing with the Google Sitemap tool, in particular, the AllinURL command and I found a couple of sites that referenced our site and led to a 404 page with a "URL moved" description. It looked odd.

Any pointers gratefully received.
