Over the past few days a fraudulent message has appeared on

several scientific Internet sites requesting a "Call
for Papers" 
and referencing Elsevier as the sender.  This message is now

being forwarded to library listservs.  It uses a fake
publisher 
email address and tries to look like an official
announcement. 
Please be aware that this is a spam message and is a fraud
that 
is being perpetrated on potential authors since it asks for
money 
up front.  Please be assured that this is not an Elsevier
email 
and Elsevier is in no way involved with this scam. Elsevier
is 
working with authorities to counter the spread of this
fraud.

If you come across the spam email 'Call for Papers' please
do not 
respond to it. We kindly request that you forward the email
to 
eesserviceselsevier.com. Thank you for your cooperation with 
this matter.
