Physicians and academic researchers are frequently targeted with spam invitations to submit manuscripts to predatory journals. This study was conducted to understand the nature and characteristics of these invitations. All spam e-mails received by an academic medical oncologist over a 3-month period were collected and categorized. Presumed predatory journal invitations were analyzed and cross-checked against Beall's list of "potential, probable, or possible predatory" journals and publishers. Invitations to submit to predatory journals were the most common single type of spam received. 2017;22:236-240.
医生和学术研究人员经常收到垃圾邮件邀请，要求他们向掠夺性期刊提交稿件。开展这项研究是为了了解这些邀请的性质和特点。收集了一位学术肿瘤内科医生在3个月内收到的所有垃圾邮件并进行分类。对疑似掠夺性期刊的邀请进行了分析，并对照贝尔列出的“潜在、可能或疑似掠夺性”期刊和出版商名单进行了交叉核对。向掠夺性期刊投稿的邀请是收到的最常见的单一类型的垃圾邮件。2017年；22:236 - 240。
