What makes you think they detect and point out all the fraud? These sites are hobby sites run by people who just run some very basic text filtering software. If fraud was being reliably detected paper mills wouldn't have businesses, yet these companies seem to be quite common and exist in multiple countries.

And recall that I said all this work pre-dates ChatGPT. Using LLMs to generate scientific papers works great, and you won't be able to find them using regexs.

The journals themselves admit there are serious fraud problems and that they don't know what to do about it. So it's very concerning. The world needs a trustworthy scientific literature.
