The cheating accidents to authors from fake websites happen from time to time. We think editorial departments of scientific journals should encourage the cheated authors to courageously face the swindlers when they check the information related to their papers, and suggest them to actively collect evidences and report a case to the local law enforcement institutions such as public security bureau and administrative bureau for industry and commerce. The cheated authors must solemnly point out the illegal and criminal nature of the website acts, and vehemently urge the websites to return the cheated money. For editorial department of scientific journals, it is necessary to actively publicize the successful cases of fighting against the crimes of counterfeiting websites and to assist the authors to recover losses. The publicity can give some?experience to other cheated authors in taking back their losses, and give the help to purify the journal-running environment and strengthen the affinity between author and journal.
