Below is the DCMA template I use, which has had pretty good results. One item that has helped is sending the email using an email with the same domain as the site if possible (e.g.,
[email protected]).
This letter is really just a reformat of the things their DCMA page says they need for a claim, so it's not anything special.
If their system uses an online form, versus an email address for DCMA claims, I just paste the whole thing in their form.

This letter is official notification under Section 512(c) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (”DMCA”), and I seek the removal of the aforementioned infringing material, and notify you to cease any further posting or hosting of infringing [[[[[[ your website]]]]].com material in the future.
Infringing video on your site:
[[[[[ list porntrex.com urls here ]]]]]]
Video stolen from:
[[[[[ list domingoview.com urls here ]]]]]]
Please also be advised that the law requires you, as a service provider, to remove or disable access to the infringing materials upon receiving this notice. Under US law a service provider, such as yourself, enjoys immunity from a copyright lawsuit provided that you act with deliberate speed to investigate and rectify ongoing copyright infringement. If service providers do not investigate and remove or disable the infringing material this immunity is lost. Therefore, in order for you to remain immune from a copyright infringement action you will need to investigate and ultimately remove or otherwise disable the infringing material from your servers with all due speed should the direct infringer, your client, not comply immediately.
I am providing this notice in good faith and with the reasonable belief that rights I own are being infringed. I have a good faith belief that use of the aforementioned material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agents, or the law. Under penalty of perjury I certify that the information contained in the notification is both true and accurate, and I have the authority to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright(s) involved.
Should you wish to discuss this with me please contact me directly.
Thank you.
