Scientific Research Publishing Inc. (SCIRP)

From Wikipedia (7/15/16): [I]ts journals duplicated papers which had already been published elsewhere, without notification of or permission from the original author and of the copyright holder. ... Some of the journals had listed academics on their editorial boards without their permission or even knowledge, sometimes in fields very different from their own. [O]ne of its journals ... accepted a paper written by a random text generator.

SCIRP journals have spammed me "as one of the top experts in the field" -- in fields in which I have no degrees, no publications, and no other presence.

SCIRP organizes a huge number of conferences, Fredominantly in China. The Flaky Academic Conferences blog has more on that.
