Dear Colleagues,
Do you have any idea about the The International Biographical Centre (IBC) Top 100 Scientists Award. Every year I find so many EARLY CAREER researchers saying that they are graded in the top 100 scientists worldwide by Cambridge University. By search, I found so many pages talking about this award confirming that it is FAKE.
Could you provide me any information about that.
I too received this award letter and am guessing what kind of "extra-ordinary" research work I have done that it recognizes me for this award. Don't know about its authenticity and methodology.
Yes, also got it. It's crap and you could add any name and field of profession if you pay (a lot) for the certificate.
It is very simple. You pay 431-1022 USdollar and you become top 100 scientist!
I received a letter from them and form to fill it about researches, publications and awards and to pay to be top 2000 intellectual... I do not trust them.
The organisation is a SCAM!

Got one too. I doubt if they are legit. I'm not going to pay US$420 just for a certificate that says you are inducted to the Top 100 Scientists - for what? This is clearly a scam.
In 2007, I received, by regular mail, a letter from the International Biographical Center (IBC). The letter stated that I was a candidate for inclusion in the biographical data of the IBC, and it was proposed to fill out a questionnaire. No fee was required. After some time I received second letter from them, it was reported that my biography was selected for inclusion in the directory and the proofreading of my biographical article was attached. Again, no fee is required. The letter was accompanied by IBC promotional materials. Some later, the IBC informed me that my biography had been included in two of their issues. No charge again. Separately, there was an advertisement of IBC publications.
