first the very bad news .. first the very bad news ... a simply click gives academia.eu access to all of your google contacts!! BEWARE giving your contacts away as it can be used maliciously. second... endless 'recommendations' that in effect become spam by sheer numbers. Occasionally i do come across an interesting paper, but i have to wade through so much else to find it. NOTE THE REPLY. NO DENIAL THAT TAKING YOUR CONTACTS HAPPENS! just a curious 'sorry you had this experience'. well of course i had this experience, thats IS the academis.eu experience they have set up!

Terrible site Terrible site, looking once and get overloeade with SPAM. Trying to unsubscribe .... unfortunately doesn't work. You get a message "unsubscribed succesfully" and within one hour new spam mails apear. USELESS REPLY RECEIVED TELLING. you can adjust your settings, of course did I do this but as already advised this doesnét work. THEREFORE remove me from ALL your Servers

They kept spamming me for years… They kept spamming me for years (luckily just my garbage account), until I finally lost it and sent them an email telling them to delete my account and all my information. No answer – but they did double down on their spam messages. At least one email in January EVERY DAY. No thanks. 1 star well deserved.

I'd give them 0 stars if I could. I'd give them 0 stars if I could. This is about as scammy as it gets, folks. Trust the reviews. My bad experience is like a regurgitation of what others have posted. Hefty charge for a mysterious service I definitely didn't sign up for after I visited their site once, like, a year ago and didn't sign up for anything. Not even a trial offer. Yeah, no. Hard pass.

Thieving spivs These spivs withdrew €214,80 from my credit card account without my permission nor knowledge. I have never signed up to any of their services and only accessed their site to read scientific papers that they make available free. Some were interesting but over the years I've downloaded less than a dozen - all allegedly free. I am puzzled how they gained access to my credit card account. I am considering legal action.
