Dear Professional and Academic Colleague Do not published and business with Lambert Academic Publishing. I and my friend published many books with LAP for last years, but never received any royalty fee even one single penny. The number of online sales that LAP reports to me with 0 copies (0 credit) is far different from the internet sales. Right now I really know that LAP Lambert is a spam and a fraudulent publishers. I and my friends regret to have published our books with LAP Lambert. Please other people as many as possible to stop publishing a book with LAP Lambert. Don’t let this worst publishers benefiting of the authors. Many masters and doctoral students get sucked into the Lambert scam. They desperately need publications early on in their career. A book sounds like a nice choice, + one free full-color copy, in hard-copy. Plus the advertising on Amazon with a small cut of the profits (apparently never paid out). Which junior budding scientists would refuse this offer? Publication of master and PhD theses in academic journals and then recycled in “academic” books published by LAP constitutes the biggest fraudulent scam in publishing history, and ironically with the biggest growth and profits. Not to mention it constitutes self-plagiarism in its worst form. The questions we should be asking is, how can this be legal in Germany? Or is the predatory publishing model indicative of something wider taking place in the dark world of academic publishing? I am making this comment to warn everyone away from anything that comes out of this dreadful shambles of a publishing house. Avoid it like the plague. I have been burned. Save yourself.
