Hear from the horse's mouth what it's like making an innocent mistake and being made to pay the price by #predatoryconferences - this week's blog from @cabells.com

WASET of time This week’s blog is based on an email Cabells received recently from an academic in Tunisia expressing their concern regarding a conference they had submitted papers to, and guidance on how to withdraw their submissions. This is a common situation that researchers find themselves in, and with the kind permission of Professor Chokri Ben Salah, we are presenting their case so others might gain some support and insight into the problems caused by predatory conferences.

Even experienced researchers can be misled by #PredatoryConferences.

In our latest blog, we share the story of a scholar who unknowingly submitted to a WASET event mimicking a legitimate conference - and what happened next.

Know the warnings signs. Protect your work.

Wow, they start to overtly threaten you in case you don't get back to them. This is insane...

And today I discussed how to identify & avoid #PredatoryConferences...

With more predatory events than real ones + over 1.2mn researchers affected every year, its important for the academic community to recognise the threat!

Don't let predators steal your money, your research, or your reputation!

#PredatoryConferences langsam so auf Kaffeefahrtniveau. Wenn ich mich als Keynote Speaker bewerbe, kriege ich 1 Mittagessen und 1 Stadtrundfahrt umsonst. Uuuuund ich darf ein Paper in einem #PredatoryJournal for free veröffentlichen. Ich kann kaum wiederstehen! Engineering oder Entrepreneurship?!?

What is it like to attend a predatory conference? Nature sent a reporter to find out as part of an investigation into dud events. Nature sent a reporter to find out as part of an investigation into dud events.

How big a problem are #PredatoryConferences in cryptology? https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-02358-w

I'm not sure that legal action will stop spam from #PredatoryJournals and #PredatoryConferences. But better spam filters might also not be feasible, So please give it a try!

Uh oh, I hope my presence at this predatory conference is NOT inevitable. Reporting "con-cordially" from "on the field of Pathology." #predatoryconferences
