You’d think that at the very least they’d learn to spell your country’s name right. These forex trading companies who work so hard to help you part with your hard earned cash. I saw this ad on Facebook yesterday. Another one of those “great can’t lose offers” in forex of course. The Facebook ad reads ” Special offer for Jamaica People. Deposit $500 and trade with $100,000.

According to our sources, Facebook distributed a request-for-proposal to a number of classified sites earlier this year (the same model they are using for Facebook Music).
The obvious partner is Oodle, which began powering Walmart Classifieds earlier this year. We’ve heard thin reports that they in fact have won the contract. More
