Fake virtual conferences

Recently one of my colleague asked to submit a manuscript to a virtual online conference. When I saw the invited speaker list I found my professor name in this list and I immediately contacted him he was stranged and knew nothing about this conference. Later on we realized it is completely a fake conference and just performed only website activities with fake address and telephone numbers and charged reasonable money from each author to present the paper on power point slides as virtual poster.
So I advice you please be careful for the submission of your abstract for such virtual conferences.

Predatory conference:
We should check whether the organizer of the conference is a proper academic organization. Authoritative conferences are repeated annually or every few years, and proper proceedings are continuously issued by known publishers. The impact of COVID-19 has made it easier for scammers to hold online Predatory conferences.
