Beall’s list, which was heavily used as a base for selection of predatory journals by a large number of research studies left the internet in 2017. Thus, the status of journals declared as predatory in this list is debatable. To verify the quality of journals in terms of accuracy and standard of peer review, a sample of Medical Science journals from Beall’s list and indexed in reputed indexing/abstracting databases was taken. The sample of journals was put to quality and credibility check by submitting a deliberately flawed research article. Deliberate errors exceed an acceptable norm in the submitted research paper. It is astonishing to see that the majority of journals (61.96%) accepted the flawed article on such a sensitive issue (i.e., COVID-19) without peer review and desired revisions. Instant mails reporting the paper's acceptance, preceded by multiple emails requesting submission for an article processing fee, were received frequently. It is found that such publishing ventures only want to generate as much revenue as possible.
