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. Daviess Menefee Library Relations Elsevier
