Not exactly anything new here, fake conferences, ideally hosted in a top 
vacation spot, have happened all the time.

It's not exactly a bad thing either *cough*, you just need to know what to 
expect, e.g. a scientific publication reference to your CV, or a nice vacation 
financed by your University.

And last but not least, "honesty in science" issues are not really much of a CS 
issue, other fields where there is much more money at stake, e.g. 
Medicine/Pharmaceutic Research are way crazier.
