Abstract

With open access publishing surging in popularity, it has provided an opportunity for entities to take advantage of the unique business model. Known as predatory journals, these entities accept a large fee in exchange for publication, but do not maintain any form of standards or peer review. This article aims to introduce the history and rise of predatory journals in hopes to further raise awareness and limit their spread.
