I found this site (http://all-free-download.com/ (http://all-free-download.com/)) with many of similar (or exact copies) vectors from stock sites, free download. Please check this one, very popular vector on shutter, I recognized it immediately:

From this site: http://all-free-download.com/free-vector/download/2014-halloween-art-background-vector_549912.html (http://all-free-download.com/free-vector/download/2014-halloween-art-background-vector_549912.html)
Can someone know anything more about this site? Should we report this? It is obvious that this site give all files for free, and many of files are exact copies (or original files) from original authors.

By giving them for free? Okay, I hope they will promote your files and your portfolio is such way.

Would you say same thing, if I found your file on that site? Your file for free download?
Okay, sorry for direct links, but I really do not know how to point to that site, without posting direct links. If you know a better way, please let me know (without sarcastic tone, of course).

If you click on the image it takes you to Shutterstock so it's an affiliate howwever the free download should be reported to SS

No, they're giving away some stolen files for free. The OP is correct. I just downloaded one of my own files from there. Scumbags.

File the useless toothless guard dog DMCA complaint. They should remove the files. Too bad there's no legal penalty for "borrowing" our files, intentionally or not.
The site is advertising for SS as a partner, the free shouldn't be yours or any of us, but some old PD files. Note that most of the search results point to Shutterstock and the pop up 10% discount ad is for Shutterstock. Click bait site.

I wrote to their registrar, who just emailed me the site owner's contact information, supposedly. So here you go:
Nguyen Thi Phuong
AFD

TPHCM Not Applicable 08408

How do I delete? I accidentally typed garbage, and all I can find is how to edit.

Here is an idea... all hyphen free hyphen download dot com...that way it is not a link. ;) So you get to be sarcastic but I can't? LOL, gotta love it.
