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!

Absolute scam Absolute scam. I made an acount to follow interesting academic literature. Instead I received daily mails concerning somebody mentioning my works in their research. Quite impossible, since none of my works is qualitative nor connected to my account. Nevertheless Academia.edu tries to sell you a subscription to view non-existing mentions.

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

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.

This is extreemly redicules site and… This is extreemly redicules site and web serviece. I highly recommend that you don't sign up even, aside from paying for a memebership. it looks not only fraudlent but spamy too. I unsubsribed from their silly spamming message services 3 times but I still get stupid messages about my name is menitoned somewhere. The article I signed for them to access wasn't accessable anyway too!!! Don't even register with them it is too fishy and spamy
