I received an email this morning from an address ending in "@sciencepostnetwork.com". They ask me to provide links to my publications so they can create news stories that can be published in many digital media. Here is an excerpt from the email:
"As Google news receives millions of hits each day from a broader audience including professionals and students, only a few exceptional researchers are selected and invited to submit their work, and you are invited! We are a specialist agency "Scientific Media" working within the research community to produce high-value, impactful communications content for researchers. This content is made available to a broad global audience and distributed to over 500+ premium news sites including Google News, Google News, WND, Bing News, Ask, CBS, CNN, Bloomberg & More, which also include key research community actors, research peers, government figures, funding agencies, policy makers, NGOs, charities, schools and libraries, investors and commercial entities, and many more"
Same here. I was trying to find out more, but was not able to realize if this "sciencepostnetwork.com" is a real and trustful thing or not.
Any further information on this? I just received an email today from them.
They look like a scam. That's why I didn't do anything with them.
I just received the same email invitation and what about posting the same question myself?
I tried to open a website with the address:
www.sciencepostnetwork.com but it did not open
Is this a new scam or a legit network?
Me2 from Wendy Campbell | Editorial Assistant "[email protected]"
Any details?
I just received the same email invitation. I've decided to skip it!
Yes, I got this too, from Shelly Barron. The website and this person lack details and authenticity. I would disregard the notice. But I do wonder how browser news feeds regarding science research are generated.
I just got the same message from Wendy. Seeing the domain, I got supicious, they have no website whatsoever. So it is scam, obviously, I just delete the message.
