Sir,
I would like to invite your attention regarding predatory journal's new strategy
of polite invitation to submit article by email. I have enclosed two email
messages of predatory journal for reference received more recently on 11.01.2019
and 30.12.2018 in my email ID moc.liamg@daud3umahs (Dr. Shamim T) [Figure 1]. I
have verified the journal Medical Research Archives and found that they are
giving false bibliographic databases’ indexation of the above journal. I also
searched the editor designation of A. Phiri and I did not find authentic
affiliation of the above editor in the concerned website of the journal. In the
second email received on 11.01.2019, I have got invitation to fill the
pre-Registration form [Figure 1]. In the journal webpage, I found that Medical
Research Archives charges the following article publication fees for accepted
papers: (Authors with no institutional, grant, or research funding: $1250;
Authors with institutional, grant, or research funding: $2999).[1] The Medical
Research Archives is hosted under KEI journals in the web.[2] Individual- and
community-wise strategies to curb young researchers from predatory publishers
and measures to initiate predatory publishers’ detecting software were proposed
recently.[3] It is sad to find that there are no legal measures implemented so
far to halt the flourishing of predatory journals where innocent researchers
become the prey of these journals.
