Email "Call for Papers" (spam) does not come from Elsevier



Over the past few days a fraudulent message has appeared on 
several scientific Internet sites requesting a "Call for Papers" 
and referencing Elsevier as the sender.  This message is now 
being forwarded to library listservs.  It uses a fake publisher 
email address and tries to look like an official announcement. 
Please be aware that this is a spam message and is a fraud that 
is being perpetrated on potential authors since it asks for money 
up front.  Please be assured that this is not an Elsevier email 
and Elsevier is in no way involved with this scam. Elsevier is 
working with authorities to counter the spread of this fraud.

If you come across the spam email 'Call for Papers' please do not 
respond to it. We kindly request that you forward the email to 
eesservices@elsevier.com. Thank you for your cooperation with 
this matter.
