Juyang Weng forwarded an announcement from Scientific Research

Readers should be warned that Scientific Research Publishing (SCIRP) is
included in Jeffrey Beall's list of predatory open-access publishers:

Beall, an academic librarian and tenured associate professor at the
University of Colorado in Denver, has become famous for his work
exposing the sleazy side of open access publishing.  You can read more

practices can be viewed here:
