About 10 years ago my SO at the time was logging into an 'industry specific credit union' banking website for the first time. She called out to me to ask me about the error she was seeing on screen so I wandered over and couldn't believe my eyes...
Part of the login credentials was the requirement for her surname which just happened to be of the Irish persuasion and the apostrophe caused the SQL query to break.
I was dumbfounded but even then, at the back of my head all I thought was "I know I should report this, but no doubt they'll swing it against me". Needless to say, I said nothing, other than telling my girlfriend to a) try it without the apostrophe; and b) not to ever put any money in the account.
