I've heard this practice called 'scalping' - grabbing the content of
the number one sites in search engine results based on your keywords,
and using it as a gateway to your own site.

Your friend (presumably) owns the copyright to the original material,
and so his/her ultimate recourse might be legal.

Best of luck
