Criminals trolling for suckers are still rampant with fraudulent listings in the Facebook Marketplace and have expanded to ads on that appear on the main feed.
It is quite interesting that two widely different artists, Peter Gabriel and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, share a remarkably similar vision toward peace.
