Academic librarian Jeffrey Beall writes, on his blog _Scholarly Open Access_, that one clue to whether a journal is questionable or predatory is its confusion about licensing statements: Typically, these publishers include the Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY Logo) along with a copyright symbol © accompanied by the statement, All rights reserved. ... These statements are contradictory. You can’t have it both ways, because the all rights reserved contradicts the CC license which allows unrestricted copying and distribution (provided you attribute the author). scholarlyoa/2014/10/23/low-quality-scholarly-publishers-dont-understand-copyright/
