On a Sidenote: I’d a love a list of CLOSED journals and conferences to avoid like the plague.

Might as well ask about a list of spam email addresses.
I don't think being closed vs open is the problem because most of the open access journals will ask for thousands of dollars from authors as publication fees. Which is getting paid to them by public funding. The open access model is actually now a lucrative model for the publishers. And they still don't pay authors or reviewers.
