Hijacking
In March 2015 it was reported that The Veliger had been hijacked by a journal calling itself Veliger: An International Journal in Science. In contrast to the real journal, the fake one has a website, and covers all areas of science. Although authors need to pay a high article processing charge to have their articles published, only paid subscribers to the fake journal can access them. The fake journal links to the archives of the real one, and gives the impression that the impact factor and inclusion in Scopus and Thomson Reuters databases of the latter also applies to them.
