I encountered this one in the wild today. I thought I could trust links mentioned by my friends on Facebook, but I guess not. My trust for Facebook is diminishing rapidly.

No, I didn't supply my log-in to the page phishing for that, but that app never should have been on Facebook's network to begin with.

for more press on this event.
