Digging around a bit:
Whois Record for Startup-Rheinland.de
Whois Record for Scope.zone
Different ip addresses for the public frontend, but clearly on shared hosting that may have some configuration issues? Both sites are using Joomla as the CMS and the header for the startup-rheinland.de even shows:

Re: Somewhat off topic. Did these guys copy the SC website?
@valis my guess is that somebody who had direct access to the site+database did a one-to-one copy and then modified it. that would explain why some remnants from the old site are still indexed by google but not necessarily linked to from within the site.
Re: Somewhat off topic. Did these guys copy the SC website?

Re: Somewhat off topic. Did these guys copy the SC website?
Seemed likely. The IP's are different but it's essentially the same rack behind them all.
