SU varnar för försök att få tag i opublicerat forskningsmaterial

Avdelningen för It och Media på Stockholms universitet har fått en varning via SUNET-Cert om att ett antal universitet den senaste månaden fått en falsk inbjudan att skicka in forskningsmaterial för publicering. I de falska inbjudningarna har ett existerande förlag använts som lockbete för att få tag på opublicerat forskningmaterial och resultat.

Avsändaradressen i de uppmärksammade fallen ser ut som följande:
elsevierpublications49@gmail.com, elsevierpublications45@gmail.com,
elsevierpublications54@gmail.com etc. Den falska svarsadressen som anges är: elsevierjournals@live.co.uk


E-brevet som har skickats ut ser ut så här:

Academia.edu - social networking for researchers

Academia.edu is a new social networking site created by some researchers from Stanford and Oxford. It's worth a visit if you are a researcher interested in making connections with colleagues across the world. Visitors to the site can add their own profiles and the profiles are connected to each other by a user friendly tree diagram. Over 14.000 researchers have already created a profile, some noteable examples: Richard Dawkins, Stephen Hawking and Noam Chomsky.
