my spam folder is a trasure trove #ResearchIntegrity
@PietroGhezzi Oh my goodness! That's so blatant!
@Retropz Will I get in trouble if I ask them how much they are willing to pay (I could buy an air conditioner) and if, while we are there, it can be done on an offshore account so I don’t pay taxes? 🤫

@PietroGhezzi They seem nice - they say they are very discreet, that there is a long time period to reply, and apologise if they are being rude

If it weren't for all the red flags, lack of integrity, certainty of academic misconduct, the strong possibility of links to organised criminality, and that any contact with them would jeopardise your entire career, it might be worth it (depending on how expensive the air con is?)

@Retropz ok on reflection I don’t need an a/c, I’ll stay with my fan
