Abstract
A predatory journal is usually a journal that has no verifiable academic credentials, and as such these journals are managed by editorial boards whose subject and disciplinary coverage is questionable. A predatory journal will allude to expert scholars who do not exist, or who have been represented as part of an editorial board without their permission.
