EMAS (European Menopause and Andropause Society) and NATA (Network for the Advancement of Patient Blood Management, Haemostasis and Thrombosis) are somehow in cahoots. Or at least they both are spamming through the same facilities that are used by nobody else to our knowledge.

We list all of the following network
inetnum: 196.219.3.128 - 196.219.3.159 netname: Hindawi-Publishing descr: Hindawi-Publishing-Corporation country: EG

ClouDNS statistics show how often any domain for which they provide the services has been queried. On October 26, the number of queries jumped from practically nothing to tens of thousands per day.

The Pakistan based El Mednifico Journal spammed us from 192.227.166.62 and promptly got listed, along with mediscene.co and mednifico.com. Dr Beall lists this on his backlog of items to be evaluated, but nothing further yet.
SCIRP is listed anew, on 67.210.119.248, after having hit our traps (again).
AASCIT spammed our traps, and is of course well known to Dr. Beall as one would expect.
