My experience with Bell Press is very similar to that of Joshua. Bellpress got (I do not know how they got my paper) my paper which I had withdrawn from iiste after acceptance. Bellpress published it with a fake author (Abdul-Baqi Antar) but retained my affiliation. I have written many mails to bellpress without acknowledgement or response. My withdrawn paper was presented at NIIE conference and had appeared in the proceedings (2012) before its appearance in bellpress journal (2013) (http://niie.org.ng/sites/default/files/NIIE%202012%20PROCEEDINGS%20f%20sent.pdf) It seems Bellpress has closed its website since its exposure but googlescholar still keep referring to the articles. It appears there was a kind of collaboration between the staff/editors/ of iiste and bellpress. Now we see that two withdrawn papers from iiste have appeared in bellpress journals. May be more of such cases are still coming. Since bellpress has gone into hiding since its exposure I think googlescholar should remove every reference to bellpress journals from its database
