From Beall’s List of Potential Predatory Publishers:
Instructions: first, find the journal’s publisher – it is usually written at the bottom of the journal’s webpage or in the “About” section. Then simply enter the publisher’s name or its URL in the search box above. If the journal does not have a publisher use the Standalone Journals list.
All journals published by a predatory publisher are potentially predatory unless stated otherwise.

PG notes that vanity publishers don’t just prey on would-be commercial authors. They also fool academics into paying for publication of their works in legitimate-sounding professional publications that won’t do much for the academic’s “publish or perish” requirements.
Academics should know the legitimate journals in their fields from the fake ones, as should tenure-granting committees.
If not, both the applicants and the grantors are also fakes.
Completely agree. Unfortunately, even a brief perusal of sites like Retraction Watch casts a rather dark shadow on the “reputable” journals – ones like NEJM, The Lancet, the various journals under the umbrellas of Nature, the AAAS, the BRS, etc. All too many academics are mainly driven by the money-granting committees.
