Spamvertizing for Advanced Science and Engineering Technology Institute (ASET)

Advanced Science and Engineering Technology Institute (ASET) is a persistent spammer which promotes open access journals and conferences in China (whose web pages apparently do not say what the registration fees are).

I never heard of the Advanced Science and Engineering Technology Institute until the spams started coming, and I certainly never signed to to receive anything from them, nor did I have any prior business relationship with them. I therefore believe that spamming is part of the Advanced Science and Engineering Technology Institute's business model. Since it sends spam to people whose research has nothing to do with its journals and conferences, I therefore think it likely that the conferences and journals are junk.
