ACademia is in violation I keep getting emails that I am getting mentioned or used in academia papers, only trying yo charge me a huge amount for a premium upgrade. The pount is that anything i write or photograph is either compleetly copyrighted by me (So academia is in violation) or publisg unde creative comments share alike in witch case academia still is in violation. Third posibility is then just spamming me with email. Witch , in the way they do, is also in violation.

Does not follow Canadian Spam Act Laws Does not follow Canadian Spam Act Laws. Ignores its own notification preferences on your account and continually bombards you with spam. You can turn off all the email notifications on your account and the service will still bombard you will multiple emails daily. It's a spam service, and the constant notifications to purchase a subscription in order to view my name mentions are complete lies designed to make you pay for non-existing papers. It's a scam. It violates Canada's spam laws.

Watch out for this scam Watch out for this scam! $169 Australian dollars taken from my PayPal account today, I had the genuine impression that my "upgrade" was for the cost of $5, without agreeing to further deductions. Additionally the " mentions" of my work - all false! An organisation totally lacking in transparency and integrity. I've logged my complaint with them - no response, 12 hours later, considering legal action now.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS Processed a yearly subscription from my account without any notice or instruction. Thieves. Stay away, and do not sign up for any of their ‘£1 trials’ as they will scam you in the future. Never again will I use this companies service, and I hope this review reduces their future income.

Multiple "unsubscribe" requests ignored Despite multiple requests to unsubscribe from "is this publication yours?" emails, they keep coming. This has been going on for six months. It is spamming now, pure and simple. Academia.edu is not respecting the notification choices of their customer base - and they are also breaking UK law by doing this!
