How to find fake Scopus journals? #profdrrajasekaran


A lot of people you are publishing in scopus indexed journal but nowadays there are so many people they lose their money because of the fraudulent fake journals. Let me tell you what are the things you have to take care while publishing in scopus in text. Journal first of all be clear that scopus is not a journal. Scopus is a database so they list lot of journals under their database those journals are called scopus indexed journals so when you publish in scope as indexed. Journal you can you can call it that. I have published in scope index designer not a scope scopus is not individual genre number one now how do people cheat the researchers in the turn the name of scopus indexed. Journal see generally when a paper is published by a particular Journal a journal is meant to publish based on certain objective of the journal say for instance a medical journal a medical journey is supposed to publish only medical related papers but if it is a paid journal what will they do whatever even Humanities people we write will submit to them they'll accept and publish the people so in that way no way the papers will be related to the year objective objectives of the journal still they accept the papers to publish it is a paid Journal it is it is not a right one to publish number one number two so after coming to understand these many problem scopus has tightened its what you call strategy so they do not index the paper if it is not if it is not if it doesn't belong to the particular domain say here there are two things over there each Journal they have their individual websites as well as they have the pay what you call a kind of uh Link in the scopus website also some good Journal even when you go to the scopus database give the journal name search it then you click it it will come to the original website but fake journals they'll give the original website something else and the when the when you click the link it will go somewhere else so when they advertise they advertise with the fake websites where they'll mention all these Journal other details something will be there but once into if you get into the scope is red app is you don't find it so because it's a fake Journal so what you need to do is they will cheat in two different way one is their website will be entirely different.

That's what in ugc also it is called cloned. Journal cloned Journal mean the name will be the same but the actual website will not go to the original agenda. It will go to the other website. See that's what instead of Colgate CEO l g a t Colgate. So they'll they'll add as c o a l g a t everything will be same but only in the name probably they could have added one letter extra to the such kind of way they'll cheat number one clone the channel but other thing nowadays even you find in the scopus database. They'll advertise that it is there in this Corpus but the point is you can publish it it will be available in their Journal home page also but it is not valid if it is not indexed in the scopus database so when you go and search the paper in the scopus database. Your paper has to appear if it doesn't appear nobody can claim the validity of the paper because you work for a institution so they will check only in the scopus database. They don't check in the individual website so a lot of agent they make use of this particular information they are not aware of what is copers. What is indexing so they simply say that it is Corpus indexed but the paper will be there only in the in their Journal website. But you will not find in the scope as database if you do not find in the scopus database in case you when you go and submit pigsty you. They may not accept when you go on claim that you have published in scopus indexed journal your University or your college may not accept because they will not be able to identify a paper and the scope is database so only when the paper paper is able to trace in the scopus database then only it is a pure original scopus so nowadays scopus is completely denying to index the papers which are not related to that particular Journal objective.

That's why they are using the journals are using a new strategy. They'll take as many number of papers possible they'll get money they'll publish in their website but when it comes to indexing they index only the papers which are highly related to their particular Journal only so rest of the paper they don't index but when they show you they show that already we have indexed for instance they could have published 150 papers. But if you go and check in the indexing there will be only 10 papers rest of the hundred and limit plus papers will not be indexed so then you will be in trouble. You could have given the money and you could have got it published but you cannot claim climate so be very carefully when you publish and make sure that whether your paper will be indexed. You check them even if you are giving to somebody you check them whether your paper will be indexed then only in case if it is a paid. Journal paid otherwise. Do not pay. It is never you can get the credit it is absolutely waste of money so I hope this information will be useful and share it to a lot of people so that let them get done. You know aware about how the they are you know losing their money without knowing that what is Corpus indexing and what is normal scope is publication scopus publication means they'll publish in the general website but that may not be indexed in this Corpus only when it is indexed in the scopus database that is only a quality to Pure publication. Hope it is useful. Let me get get you in the next video bye.
