In this case I would ban without a warning, because of three reasons.
First, in all likelihood they'll switch it back a week later and I wouldn't want
to have to keep checking up on them. Secondly, one you intentionally
screw me, I don't want to work with you. Why would I want to send checks
to people who essentially stole from me? Lastly, if they are screwing all
of the affiliate programs and supporting sites full of stolen content, I want
do whatever I can to help them go out business ASAP. I would tell them WHY
they are banned, perhaps, and tell them they can re-join if and when they
start acting like professionals - no screwing ANY affiliate programs and
no links to ANY stolen content sites.
If one of them posts on a board you lay out your screenshots and such showing
them to be complete thieves. They have no credibility and you get points for
integrity and supporting the kind of legitimate professional conduct which helps
the whole industry.
