Fortunately, Chrome has a big red barrier up.

This has been going on for two decades, since Sonic Foundry.

Thanks for the heads up, and unfortunately in a global internet, there is little you can do.

Scavenger websites are like schmoos -- take one down, and three more show up to take their place!

vegascreativesoftware.net, vegascreativesoftware.org and vegascreativesoftware.biz

Even though all these websites are now taken down, the golden rule of registering a domain name (especially by a famous or popular brand) is to also register the TLD's like net, org, info, biz etc to avoid other people from misusing these extensions or impersonating the public who often are the primary target.
