About a month ago, I discovered that I am listed as the editor of the "EON International Journal of Arts, Humanities & Social Sciences." In fact, I had never even heard of this journal, so I sent an e-mail to them telling me to remove my name. I never heard back and am still listed as editor, so I decided to take further action. They give their mailing address as:
2055, Limestone Rd Ste 200C, Zip Code 19808 Wilmington,
Delaware, USA
I suspect that they are actually based outside the United States, since they clearly aren't familiar with American conventions for writing addresses, but Google Maps shows a building at 2055 Limestone Rd, so I wrote to them. The concluding sentences in my letter are:
"Falsely claiming that I am the editor of a predatory journal is defamatory. If you do not remove my name from the listing by October 15, I will consult with my attorney about the possibility of legal action."
Let's see if that has any effect.
Consider calling the Delaware Attorney General's Office.
