List of identified Hijacked journals/ cloned journals

Researchers are being duped through various hijacked research journals. This blog post aims to provide the latest list of identified hijacked journals.

This hijacked list of journals will help researchers, and scientists check the validity of titles before they submit their work.

The online provided hijacked journals list contains 150 titles with the associated web addresses of allegedly hijacked journals.

Hijacked journals (Cloned Journals)

Hijacked journals usually exist in the form of ‘cloned’ websites that appear similar to those of the legitimate journals, but contain subtle changes in the web domain that go unnoticed at first glance.

The cloned websites also specify the ISSN on their websites exactly similar to the right journals.

Thus the cloned journals look similar to the real journals and collect fees from authors.
