Abstract

As the number of scientists in the world grows permanently, we witness a huge number of examples of scientific misconduct especially in the last 20 years. In addition, plenty of the fake or even non-existing “scientific results” are published in predatory “scientific journals” that usually charge the authors significant amount of money for publishing their “works” in these fake journals. Scientific fraud exists to such an extent that in one recent study it has been concluded that “science bears little resemblance to its conventional portrait”. In this lecture we focus on some specific and fanny misconducts in publishing, while presenting several examples of most predatory journals and some incredible “science” published there.
