Predatory Journals
Manuscript Submission Invitations from ‘Predatory Journals’: What Should Authors Do?
Credible journals do not chase authors and send article sub-mission invitations, rather authors look for them.
Course contents of the undergraduate and postgraduatecurriculums need to include mechanisms of checking the authenticity of a journal, credibility of the metrics and whether the journal is indexed in reputable databases such as MEDLINE,PubMed or Web of Science.
