Hello everyone!
I recently received invitations to contribute an article to the current issue of the Journal of Brilliant Engineering (BEN) and Chemistry and Biochemistry. Can anyone with experience or knowledge about these journals confirm their originality?
Thank you.
Hi,
Personally, I've heard of neither..
I also receive tons of invitations to publish articles in obscure journals (in my spam folder), with very short turnaround times that I usually completely ignore, as I've read stories about people trying to steal original research manuscripts this way.
So be cautious.
Rahim,
They're certainly original.
But I've read the 'mission statement' of BEN, and can find no compelling reason to submit work there.
Indeed, here's one reason to not submit to the journals run by Prof. Aydin:
I quote from:
https://acaydin.wordpress.com/cebel/
"An artificial intelligence based English proof system checks the language of the paper."
Mmm.
Call me old-fashioned, but it shouldn't be too hard to find someone to read a submission who is a native english speaker.
