Fake Journal

Recently fake journals are polluting the advancement of science. Here some  interesting articles like
"Fake Journals: Their Features and Some Viable Ways to Distinguishing Them" published in Sci Eng Ethics (2015) 21:821–824, DOI 10.1007/s11948-014-9595-z
and "New year's resolution: Say no to fake journals and conferences" published in Obesity (2016) 25:11-12 DOI: 10.1002/oby.21738

have been found where several procedures are suggested to identify fake journals. Some of them are as follows:
1. "work in a multidisciplinary way" and no specific objective. 
2. charges for publication
3. publish fake science
