The Wolf of Wall Street

Other mistake: Story inconsistency, at the start of the film in the Ferrari scene, Jordan says he made 49 million aged 26 as the head of his own brokerage firm. The newspaper article by Forbes states Jordan filed for personal bankruptcy aged 26 and that Jordan is currently 29 and that Stratton Oakmont is 2 years old, making Jordan at least 27 in the scenes when they are still operating from the garage. (00:01:30 - 00:40:00)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Teresa is yelling and hitting Jordan after pulling him out of the limo, we see the door being closed 3 times. She starts to close the door. In the next shot she slips, and the door is fully open again. In the following shot she closes the door completely, and in the shot following that, she's closing the door once again. (01:00:25)

Trivia: The humming chant Matthew McConaughey does and Leonardo DiCaprio adopts is actually something McConaughey does before scenes to relax himself and clear his head. He did it before shooting the scene with DiCaprio in the restaurant, and after a few takes DiCaprio suggested that it was put in the scene, so it stayed.

Question: How did the FBI find the note Jordan gave Donnie when he was wearing a wire?

Chosen answer: As seen from Donne's reaction when the FBI storm the building shortly after, It should be assumed that Donnie told the FBI himself, and kept the note as evidence. One of the reasons for this could be that Donnie must have felt betrayed or something similar.
