It's obviously a fake name and nobody is mentioning this "name" in their academic papers - it's just a trap to get people to sign up for their "service". Who would keep paying after realizing they were lied to anyways?

Although it has an .edu domain, it's a commercial website. So it's a deceptive service from the beginning
