APC Scam Alert Post

 

Please be assured that you are not required to pay any Article Publication Charges (APCs) unless you have received an official invoice issued through the OJS system or directly from the journal’s official email address.

For clarity, in our journal the term APC refers to Article Publication Charges. These charges are requested only after an article has successfully passed the peer review process and reached the acceptance stage.

Final acceptance of an article is confirmed only after payment is duly verified by the bank authorities and an official confirmation is sent through email notification. Please note that acceptance letters in PDF format will not be issued by the journal in future and should be considered invalid if received from any other source.

If you receive any unsolicited payment requests or suspicious acceptance letters, please treat them as fraudulent and disregard them.
