Q: Eat24 or an affiliate marketer made a site "stacias-pizza.com" that makes it look like my client's. Is this legal?
A:
Are you saying you're a web designer and you created a website for a pizza place, and someone copied and rebranded that website as Stacia's Gourmet Pizza?
If so, how much of your work was copied? What elements: images, text, html?
Or are you saying that Stacia's Gourmet Pizza is your client and some other company made a website that represents itself to be Stacia's Gourmet Pizza's official website?
Did Stacia's Gourmet Pizza give this other developer permission to build a site using its name?
It appears that Eat24 is a food delivery service. It likely either places orders with participating restaurants on behalf of customers, the restaurants then deliver to customers; or it places orders with any restaurant, then an Eat24 employee picks up the food and delivers it to customers.
