Abstract

  • Emerging as a novel cybercrime, cloned (or hijacked) journals with identical ISSNs to legitimate ones have surfaced.
  • These cloned journals employ various tactics, and this article identifies and discusses the top five.
  • Fraudulent journals primarily focus on print-only publications, using parallel websites to mislead researchers.
  • Cloned journals are using videos on their homepages to deceitfully showcase indexing in databases like Scopus or Web of Science.
