Beware of counterfeit journal websites!

When contacting scientific journals you are not familiar with, check their credentials before submitting to a journal or publisher. Check that the journal’s editorial board lists experts with full recognized affiliations. Contact some of them and ask about their journal or publisher. Check that the journal prominently displays its policy for author fees. Use common sense, as you would when shopping online. For further details see i.e. Stop predatory publishing
