ARTICLES IN A HIJACKED JOURNAL

Beware of a clone version of BANGLADESH JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGY !!

Recently (from May 21, 2025), a fraudulent website appeared, claiming to act on behalf of the Bangladesh Journal of PharmacologyIt is listed as a Hijacked journal (The Retraction Watch Hijacked Journal Checker – Retraction Watch).

How to identify it:

a) Type the words "Bangladesh Journal of Pharmacology" in any search engine (for example, "Google.com"). The URL is other than https://banglajol.info/index.php/BJP or https://bdpsjournal.org/index.php/bjp.

b) Names and affiliations of the Editor-In-Chief and Editorial Board Members are absent

c) There are no "Author's guidelines".

d) Does not provide any DOI number for each article (important for all articles).

e) Page numbers of any article (from the first page to the last page) are not continued with the next article.

f) Motivate the authors to publish their papers as RAPID PUBLICATION.

g) They provide the authors a FAKE ACCEPTANCE LETTER.

h) Receive money from authors as Article Processing Charge (APC). Special rate (higher) for the Chinese/Saudi authors. Authors are instructed to pay money to a bank account located in INDIA instead of Bangladesh. They give you the Personal account name instead of the "Bangladesh Pharmacological Society" name.

i) They publish papers on chemistry, biology, and public health (not related to the journal title). Within the last 120 days, they published 42 papers of any type (including Law, Business, and Computer sciences), of which 32 were withdrawn by authors. Other authors failed to withdraw their papers, as the hijacked journal authority claimed extra money from the authors as a Withdrawal fee. Recently, they stop to reply of the author email after getting payment.

Solution:

Please don't fall into this trap (Please do not accept this type of emails). Otherwise, you will, no doubt, lose your money, get stressed, and lose your reputation with your institute/colleagues. At the end of the day, you cannot achieve anything. We have constant WATCH on this fraudulent website.

Our strong steps:

When we request them, they do not respond. Even some of the Institute/University does not take any action to withdraw the paper published from the clone version of Bangladesh Journal of Pharmacology. We decided to make it PUBLIC and will not take any responsibility of these papers.
