Well. If their operation is pointed out often enough in public, less
gullible scientists (i.e. poor people needing publications urgently)
will fall for them.

They have, I note, already changed the name of their conferences a bit
:-).

Let's attach a warning to any "call for papers" from them that turns
up in a news group we read. That should put some spanner in their
works.

(But first check wether we are right in our suspicion).

If any scientist of reputation here could vouchsafe for the IAENG
here, I'd be also happy.

Regards -- Markus
