Commentary:
I recently was asked to review an article from a journal that I had not heard of before. As I started reading the article, I recognized it as similar to one I had reviewed a year or so ago that I had reviewed as needing major revisions (I also gave several issues that needed to be addressed). Well, the more I read, the more it was not only similar but was identical. When I did a 'compare documents', the main difference was the abstract. The authors didn't even attempt to address any of the issues I had. They, instead, just went Journal Fishing. Even more sad is that the corresponding author is an upstanding and well known researcher in the field.
