Not really specific to "as an indie developer." One of my customers who sells aviation products online had this happen -- entire site cloned with his photos and a checkout process that collected payment through Stripe.

Reporting to the fake site's domain registrar got the fastest result -- domain suspended within an hour. It looks like you might have done that because rectanglemac shows suspended to me.

As for fighting fraud, good luck. My customer's site was jacked by someone in China according to the domain registration info (whois). Not much you can do about it other than report it.

Thanks for the reply! For some reason I don't see rectanglemac as being suspended, but if it really is, then that would be great. Good to know that you've seen success going the registrar route. From what I've read online, NameCheap (the fraudulent site's registrar) appears to have a reputation for a lot of criminals using their service, so I've been skeptical that I'll get results from that route.
