Romanian here working in Academia, can confirm this happened and was a huge headline in the press a few weeks ago. Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks for the offer. I had forwarded the retraction watch article to my colleagues and we had a chat about this incident. I don't think we'll be sending our work to MPDI, ever!

It just breaks my heart to see so many people from eastern Europe and Asian countries exploited for their labour.
