Determine the sending email server for the email messages and file a report
- if the original senders address is available send an abuse report to the
ISP for that address too.
Determine the host owner of the offending site and file a report of
criminal activity.
Determine the owner of the IP address for the web site and file a report of
criminal activity
Perform a traceroute on the web site ip address and send abuse reports to
all upstream providers.
Determine who owns the Web Site's Name Servers and file abuse reports with
them.
An easy set of tools to find most of this is http://www.dnsstuff.com
You might also want to file a complaint with the federal guvmunt

If the Phish site is using images pulled from your site you can also
replace those images with warning messages.
