Dear Professor,
I hope my email finds you well
Professor, recently the journal Hillaris has contacted me asking me to pay almost $1000 for publishing my article, which I send to them in 2018. even when told them don't because I can't pay.
Professor, they publish it without my signing a copyright agreement.
Honestly, I am from a north African nation $1000 is almost 3 months' wage payment.
Profesor, they are threatening me and others according to your article in the blog with legal charges?
can you help me, by telling me what to do?
Thank you for your support
best regards
