Seeing as this comes from a hushmail.com account (anonymous service I believe), and says some not very nice things about a particular individual I think it can be taken with a pinch of salt.
Academic conferences don't make mega-bucks, even if you ran a corrupt one you'd have to offer something else along with it (visas for entry). Which would get you noticed by the authorities pretty quickly. If you are going to make these kind of claims against someone you either need to have a good reason to hide your name or you publish and be damned. Mr Arabnia's side of the story seems a lot more plausible. http://www.redandblack.com/news/professor-deals-with-elaborate-cyber-attack/article_03344d54-cd7f-5753-a870-e3bcee5c87ce.html On 1 May 2013 09:23, Richard Barran <[email protected]> wrote: > Spam?
