There it is, another retraction for #papermill #fraud Shafaqat Ali! This idiot has published nothing but fake papers. This is retraction nr 16. Should easily reach >50 retractions. When will publishers learn?

I expect massive retractions in this journal in the (near) future given they have been publishing a lot of crap under the corrupt editors Christian Sonne and Jörg Rinklebe

Retraction for Samuel A. Vigne from Luiss Business School. He learned all the #fraud from his PhD mentor the corrupt editor
@brianmlucey.bsky.social (more than 10 retractions for his fraud). When will publishers clean up the mess the 'Lucey gang' made? LarisaYarovaya is also a member of the gang.

Retraction nr. 19 (!!) for #fraud Eliezer Masliah!!! The millions this idiot wasted, unbelievable. Most likely still taking in a fat pension and so on. Any repercussions for his fraud?

More lovely work from #papermill #fraud Jörg Rinklebe
@uni-wuppertal.bsky.social! Images taken from the web to show their field trials, yeah right. Authors claim to have done tests in ryegrass but for some reason had to steal pics from the web?👇 @elsevierconnect.bsky.social doi.org/10.1016/j.sc...

Sometimes the #papermill #fraud & #corrupt editor Jörg Rinklebe from @uni-wuppertal.bsky.social does actually read the BS he publishes! Whether he understands it, is another question! These frauds are really something! Now they already start to 'read' the crap they publish, progress I assume?😂

Well well the #fraud @brianmlucey.bsky.social ranting on his linkedin page about universities👇. Perhaps he should better take a class in ethics to understand one does not edit their own papers! This fraud still denies any wrongdoing while he edited his own papers...

Retraction nr 11 for #papermill #fraud and corrupt editor Simona Bungau (University of Oradea) and retraction nr 5 for Lotfi Aleya (Laboratoire Chrono-environnement), also a paper mill fraud and corrupt editor!

Yeah, that's true, a lot of value (innovation) went right into his pocket from all the corruption he provided with his network of frauds.... He made a lot of money with his paper mill /corrupt editing/reviewing activities.

Fraud most definitely pays off! Major #fraud , #papermill author and corrupt editor Pau Loke Show (26 retractions for fraud & counting) is the new director of the Center of Excellence for Research, Value Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CERVIE) UCSI university. You can't make this shit up!

Paper mill #fraud and corrupt editor Su Shiung Lam from Universiti Malaysia Terengganu is advertising a special issue in the #papermill journal Biochar from @springernature.com. This journal has almost no real editors, most are paper mill frauds/corrupt editors! When will Springer act?

You might want to check out his Linkedin account. He has not started to blame Elsevier for a lack of respect towards editors/reviewers/authors. I think he is starting to realise his game is over! Of course, his friends and fellow frauds Yong Sik Ok and Christian Sonne defend him.

Who is #papermill #fraud Jörg Rinklebe from @uni-wuppertal.bsky.social trying to fool? He is blaming the publisher for disrespecting authors/editiors/reviewers but the fact is that he is a fraud & corrupt editor that has been publishing fake papers and editing for his friends (& vice versa)

The #papermill frauds Jörg Rinklebe, Yong Sik Ok and Christian Sonne are now complaining on Linkedin that they are not 'respected' by @elsevierconnect.bsky.social !These frauds know no shame & should get massive retractions for their #fraud! Editing/reviewing for each other and publishing fake stuff

Rajeev K Varshney is a #fraud who has his name put on all sorts of articles for which he didn't do anything. On top of this he has his (frequent) co-authors edit and review his papers! When will
@murdoch.edu.au act? And Wiley allows him to continue his fraud in their journals.

Rajeev Varshney has now also deleted his twitter account. I wonder why... I think he is feeling some pressure.

Oh boy, this will not age well. Rajeev J Varshney is a #fraud. He has his friends edit and review his papers and he puts (forces) his name on papers for which he didn't do anything.

The first retraction for #papermill #fraud Maximilian Lackner is a fact! He got fired by his previous university because of his fraud but the Comenius University Bratislava hired him!! Seriously, these frauds always get away with it and find other universities to hire them!

Retraction nr 33 for professional #papermill #fraud Joseph Raj Xavier! He has published nothing but fake data, yet most publishers, such as @elsevierconnect.bsky.social , have not really started to retract all of his fake crap. Luckily @springernature.com does retract his BS.

The mentally deranged lunatic Matthew James Stephenson finally got a retraction!👇This idiot, and stalker, claims to be a surgeon, olympic athlete, mathematician, & so on. When will publishers retract all the crap he published? @smutclyde.bsky.social @elisabethbik.bsky.social

Always the same story: no real consequences. Aside from a few exceptions these frauds face little consequences.

How can these people be so stupid? Or perhaps Weldeiry knows very well but he is just poaying 'it' knowing he has full support of the conspiracy idiots....

Addressing the elephant in the room👇When will people/governments wake up? As long as the frauds and the universities and publishers covering it up keep getting away with it, not much will change.
