Reprint Request and Scientific Scamming

Abstract

Scientific fraud through scamming via report request involves individuals posing as researchers or reputable organizations to deceive authors into providing reports. This undermines the credibility of scientific literature and erodes trust in the research community. It can lead to dissemination of fraudulent reports, compromising subsequent research and impeding scientific progress. Addressing this issue requires awareness campaigns, education, and stricter verification protocols. By understanding the consequences and taking preventative measures, the scientific community can combat this unethical and fraudulent practice, preserving the integrity of research.
