So, you saw a Facebook ad where you could buy a drone that had flown across the Atlantic ocean to your country? Well, don't waste your time and try not to lose all the money you have in your bank account.
The Facebook ad links to a page at http://jublr.tkr.me/droneno (or similar for another country). There they have some "special offer", in Norway they are adding in a couple of magazines if you buy a drone for a very low amount of money (10 USD / 50 NOK).
They collect your credit card information and they do not do this on a SECURE page. This is proof on its own that this is not a serious business and (unless they are really stupid) they are most likely going to try to empty your credit card as soon as you give them your information.
If you have given them your credit card information already, make sure you cancel your card as soon as possible. It will not take them long to start abusing your card and start stealing your money.
On the Norwegian page they try to pretend to be representing a Norwegian website called "Bonnier Shop". This shop is real, but it is not found on this URL.
Have you found a similar Facebook ad in your country? Please comment and give the rest of us more information about it.
Edit: I just noticed that the Norwegian magazine "Illustrert Vitenskap" has a REAL campaign which looks exactly like the one mentioned above. The scammers have copied the real campaign, so they look very similar. However, once they ask you to fill in your creditcard details, you need to make sure you are on a SECURE page. Usually indicated by a padlock to the left of the URL in the address bar. The address itself should start with https://... (the s in https is important)
The real campaign is here: http://shop.illvit.no/node/
