When you say "my content", are you referring to content that you created, like a blog or online resource or are you referring to content your users created? Also is the information they're copying factual in nature (like a map or results of a calculation)?
If it's factual in nature: It's not protected by copyright.
If it's content your users created: You are not the copyright holder and cannot file a DMCA takedown notice. Your best bet is really going to be making yourself unscrapable.
If it's content you created: File a DMCA takedown notice.
