Not quite what you're saying but tangentially related: many web sites are confusing to the naive user. They ask you to register using your email address and a password, without making it clear that they don't mean the password for the email account. I'm sure more than a few people have been caught by that. It doesn't mean the website is malicious, but now the attack front on the password has been expanded.
