You may notice that the provided phone number is neither from Amsterdam nor the country. Further, the invitation is not signed by a full name and/or function.

This looks similar to scam requests I get. In addition to the answer above me, there is no mention of what you do or what you would present. I also did a quick search on one of the presenters. The only info I can find on them is from predatory journals and the organization they represent does not appear to exist online.

The conference is almost certainly not an authentic scientific enterprise.

Thank you Hein, Jess, Kirk and others for your help.

I think it is a scam . I have been around for a few years and never heard of such a society "scienticfederation" means nothing.

Thanks All for opening our eyes. Let us wait for the conference organizer reaction if any.

I find their site - http://scientificfederation.com/testimonials.php. What do you think?

I was just invited to be a 'Speaker/Delegate'. Its not a legitimate conference as far as I can tell.

There was a similar named conference held last month (May) in Italy.

Scientific Foundation is completely bogus. Some of our staff have been scammed by this company. Their conferences are to be avoided at all costs. This is a useful guide to predatory conferences:

Some of such scams even invite to join as the keynote, but, do not provide any logistics info. Thanks Prof. Healey for sharing the above link.

Hi Riad, I have been reading a loti of your papers on TNE recently. You are getting really active in this field!! Nige

Thank you, Nigel. It is really nice to know that you have found some of my papers worth reading. Yes, TNEs’ sustainability, quality assurance, research activeness of TNEs, its promotion are the crucial issues in this field to encounter its vulnerabilities, as well as to capitalize with the full potentials of this sector. I hope that more academics will be interested in this field and we could continue exploring insights that have implications for both theory and practice.

Cordially,

Riad

Dear Lacarus it is a predatory conference. Read more here: https://www.researchgate.net/post/Predatory_conferences_and_publishing_new_developments

I fully agree with the last comment offered above. Keep your money and go to a real conference

Yes, they are a scam. I suggest that everyone respond to them and waste as much of their time as you can!

Well, I was going to present at one of these-not heard of scam conferences before-naive in the extreme I guess. They used my name but posted a bogus profile and a total nonsense title. What charlatans! can anything be done about these people?

Dear Ajla Alisah, it is very hard to say. I went to a conference organized by conferencesseries.com, which is supposed to be a "predatory one". However, it was the best conference for me on that year. Excellent audience, very nice people, friendly people. Excellent quality of speakers. Good luck

I still think you should keep your money and attend a real conference. Some may perceive it as very pleasant but this is quite likely because it is a big social party and still has nothing to do with a scientific conference.

Like several others, I was invited by Scientific Federation to be a speaker at an upcoming conference. I looked up their web page. They will arrange exactly 100 conferences in 2019. Three and three conferences on very different issues and research areas will be arranged in the same city on the very same dates. Quite odd, if you ask me.

I was invited as plenary speaker of this scientific federation this coming October 2019 in Bangkok , Thailand. Do i need to cancel my talk?

I will go in few days, so when I come back, I can tell You my opinion.

Gloria, thank You so much for answer. Best regards

Scientific Federation is after me every day. I was invited for many of their conference even my expertise is not related at all with the conference. I response and i have been accepted to be plenary speaker. How easy is that? . I am presenting bamboo composite in the Optics conference. It is really funny. When i did not submit anything to them nothing is happening, My name still in the conference website as plenary speaker. It is your call, you can try and i hope you comeback and tell me how it is going for you? I have watched the youtube of their interview, you can tell. Have a great day ahead and be focused on your conference, be selective .

I have recently been invited as a speaker to their conference, which is to be held in August, 2020. What should I do? Has anyone attended scientific federation's conference, in real? Dear @Ajla Alisah could you please provide me with your feedback? I need your guidance on this issue.

I am trying to find out about Eurasia Research work as they are doing many conferences, in Dubai and other places. They look extremely shady to me, but I could not find anything on them.

This is their website: https://eurasiaresearch.org/

I once tried to help the scientific federation to organize an HIV/ AIDS conference in South Africa ( with the highest AIDS infection rate in the world) but had to resign as a member of the Organizing Committee several months before the meeting because of serious health problems . Being unable to travel , I requested a full reimbursement of my registration and accommodation fees I had sent them three months earlier. I never received a reply .

I discovered that their HIV / AIDS conferences attract a very small number of participants and I am

grateful for the pulmonary infection that interrupted my involvement with them . Their meetings are certainly to be avoided .

My experience is that the conferences organized by the SCI FED are very poorly attended and that their scientific organization aims only to make a profit and is of very low quality

Dear members, Scientific federation is sending me again emails. Inviting me a conference about Nuclear Physics when I am a polymer chemist. How serious they look like.

Hello,

I have been there. It is well organized,and the most important thing,I met some great experts. It is problem about publishing papers.
