What do they try to sell you or get you to do?
They try to get you to submit articles to them (usually for a fee too). But they're kind of sham journals with no peer review or standards who no one actually reads. They'll publish pretty much anything without even looking. They have bots that just mass email every corresponding author in every paper published just begging for submissions to their journal. Whenever an article is published in a reputable journal, one author has to have contact information publicly listed so they can answer any questions about the paper, and these predatory journals just scrape that info. It's bad, so many emails every day.
Uhg!!
This is a joke article submitted by someone who was trying to see how low the bar is: https://sites.tufts.edu/hilab/files/2020/12/Baldassarre_2020.pdf
(What’s the Deal with Birds?, Dan Baldassarre, 2020)
Birds are very strange. Some people are like “whoa they’re flying around and stuff, what’s the deal with that?” This sentiment is…
Off to a strong start
Surprised they got Big Bird to comment on this pressing issue. Truly a scientific breakthrough.
Dear Dr. Ghost,
I hope you are enjoying your week so far.
I recently came across your article, Ghost Pals: Assessing Friendliness in Paranormal Entities. I thought it was an interesting and insightful addition to the literature, and I’m wondering if you’d be interested in contributing a paper to an upcoming publication I’m editing?
I’m working with the European Society of Supernatural Oddities to produce a special theme issue of its official journal. The topic is Challenges and Opportunities for Paranormal Research, and I think your work would be a brilliant addition. The journal is open access and has a large readership composed of academic researchers and medical professionals. Hopefully, it would increase the visibility of your research substantially.
Would you be willing to have a quick discussion over email about your research since publishing this paper, or potential ideas for a paper? We still have space for original research, case studies, and review articles.
All the best,
