your topic is so much impressive

An email from a predatory “journal” I received last week end… With presumably all other speakers at MCqMC 2016. Items of [moderate] interest after looking at the “journal” website:

  • weird wording
  • no mention is made in the email of the $650 required for publish a paper
  • the Editorial Board is inexistent to the point there is no Editor and the page calls for applications

    Predatory journals are a disgrace. I receive loads of these emails every week. I wonder what we can do to stop them. I mean, not just as individual person (you just ignore these emails).
