I got an email from scientia(dot)global for a possible pop-sci profile for one of my papers. I saw that they have previously profiled some big names in my field. Does anyone know if they ask researchers to pay for a profile at the end even though they don't specify that in the email? (in which case I won't bother responding to them)
Difinitely, Scientia global is a predatory publisher. This can also be validated by their emails in which they write that the results of the academic research papers will not be published (at first). This means that the research papers will not be peer reviewed just like predatory journals which are although claimed to be peer reviewed, but are not . They send unsolicited emails to author's and try to persuade them to publish their already published work in their publications, which is obviously chargeable. The charges are as high as 3300 GBP. The name of this publisher should be included in the blacklist issued by Cabell’s International.
Please save your time and money!
