They published it in "Cogent Social Sciences" which is publishing everything if you pay them enough money. They have been hoaxed themselves.

"...it’s held out as a high-quality open-access journal by the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), which is intended to be a reliable list of such journals."

I think that is one of the main points they wanted to stress.
