Here are some indicators to look out for:
\n– The journal has no address or contact information other than an email address listed.
\n– There are articles listed but no evidence of an editorial board to review those articles.
\n– The website has an overwhelming number of images from major publishers who would have no reason to partner with this journal.
\n– The editorial board seems to contain very prominent researchers who would be too busy to work with an unknown journal.
\n– There is no mention of an APF, which means you\u2019ll likely receive an outrageous bill after your article has been rapidly accepted for publication.
\n-There is no mention of a peer review process or basic submission requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n
