Center for Contemporary Research (CCR)

The Center for Contemporary Research is an elusive publisher. No website for it appears in the first several pages of results from a search for the name. The website of the journal that spammed me (the International Journal of Business Management and Commerce (IJBMC)) identifies CCR as its publisher but has no link to it. It states
Center for Contemporary Research (CCR) is an International, Scholarly open access publisher that currently provides worldwide research publications. CCR offers a broad range of options for authors and researchers, enabling authors to publish their material in our quality open access journals with a high degree of rigorous peer review integrity and transparency. Our dedicated technical and editorial team members ensure the quality of the published research articles. We have very reputable and dedicated editorial board members from different academic fields which ensure the quality and review standards according to the international research publishing standards and quick publication of research articles.

Center for Contemporary Research (CCR) publishes a number of journals, covering Business, social science, natural science, health science, general science, Technological science, economics and management. All journals are peer reviewed, and open access.
The same description -- word for word, and capitalization error for capitalization error -- appears on the website of the International Journal of Social Science and Business (IJSSB), which identifies the Center for Academic Research (CAR), as its publisher:The single difference is the substitution of "Academic" (and "A" in the acronym) for "Contemporary." The navigation bars have the same nine tabs in the same order, and the two sites use the same animated gif that blinks between "Submit paper" and "Click Here." Finally, the dubious UK address and the Bangladesh ones are the same, which puts both (or is it one?) in the same Portsmouth townhouse as the Research Institute for Progression of Knowledge (RIPK).
