It looks like the scam there is genuine, rather than being made up by the offended publisher. The same complaint has turned up on some spamademic publisher's FB page:

I also refer you to <a href="http://scholarlyoa.com/2012/07/23/journals-from-antarctica/" / rel="nofollow">this list of ingeniously-named journals from a few years ago</a>. The editor / publisher of at least one of them, the Mendeleev Journal of Chemistry, is supposedly one <a href="http://www.academicejournals.com/mjc/authors.html" rel="nofollow">M.K.R.S. VEERA KUMAR</a> (who must add "vile web design" to his other crimes against humanity).
Anyway, Mr VEERA KUMAR <a href="http://www.allpapers.info/JefferyBeall/jb.html" rel="nofollow">is also warning people</a> that "This shady person has approached me promising that Jeffery Beall [sic] will say nice things about my scam, if I give him $$$."
Am I a bad person for hoping that the Turkish second-order grifter has approached *lots* of publishers, promising to have them uncategorised, and that all the others have paid him money?
