The #fraud never stops! Will the @mohesr_en ever do anything to stop the #fraud? Here we see #fraud Hayder A Dhahad celebrating another fraud Sarah Qahtan, who recently got a retraction for her #fraud! When oh when will publishers learn? @ElsevierConnect
When will @ElsevierConnect ever learn? They now invite #papermill frauds to their headquarters! Seriously inviting #fraud Hayder Abed Dhahad? These publishers really love to enable fraud! @RELXHQ shame on you! More about Dhahad from @RetractionWatch 👇 retractionwatch.com/2025/10/…

Well well, another retraction for #papermill frauds Asmaa F. Khafaga & Mohamed E. Abd El-Hack! Again, a paper 'edited' by corrupt editor (and paper mill #fraud) Lotfi Aleya from Laboratoire Chrono-environment! Can we trust this company when they have such frauds?

Unbelievable, @ClarivateAG//@Clarivate seriously needs to wake up and remove the sh*t from their eyes. Celebrating paper mill frauds from Iraq as if they are the 'science heroes'. Seriously? When will people wake up and stop celebrating those 'prolific' idiots that are frauds.

Meet Ehsan Kianfar from Islamic Azad University. He is a proud '2% idiot' ! At this point, I will automatically assume you are a #fraud when you brag about this '%' thing. Of course, like many of them, he is a #papermill #fraud with several retractions (2 shown as examples).
