Line 72:
* [[Heralds of Valdemar|Herald Myste]] had this pulled on her as a child three times by guys using her to get close to her best friend (the most attractive girl in the neighborhood). Prince Karathanelan tricks Selenay into wedding him, but doesn't survive the "betrayal" part.
* ''[[Harry Potter]]'': {{spoiler|Wormtail}} does this when he betrayed Harry's parents to Voldemort, even though they were his best friends. When his remaining friend {{spoiler|,Sirius,}} chased him down after James and Lily's deaths, {{spoiler|Wormtail shouted that Sirius had been the one to sell out the Potters, caused an explosion that killed a dozen innocent people, and faked his death before escaping, pinning the murders of himself, the Potters, and all the other people on Sirius}}.
** Let's not forget {{spoiler|Tom Riddle}} doing this to {{spoiler|Ginny}} and, to a lesser extent, {{spoiler|Professor Slughorn}}. Half-Blood Prince elaborates on this by showing that he seemingly befriended a wealthy woman named Hepzibah Smith, but when he realized that she was in possession of Helga Hufflepuff's cup AND Salazar Slytherin's locket, he wasted no time in coming up with a scheme to murder her and pin the blame on her house elf servant, making it look like an accident.
* ''[[The 39 Clues]]'': [[Handsome Devil|Ian Kabra]] pretended to like [[Smart Girl|Amy]] so he and his sister could steal the clue from right under [[Brother-Sister Team|Amy and Dan's]] noses.... Only... [[In Love with the Mark|it isn't]] [[Unrequited Love Switcheroo|quite that simple]].
* In ''[[The Traitor Game]]'', [[Friendless Background|Micheal]] comes to believe that [[Cool Loser|Francis]] has spent their entire friendship laughing about their games with his friends. The consequences are nothing short of disastrous.
* The fox and the cat in ''[[The Adventures of Pinocchio]]'', upon discovering Pinocchio has several gold pieces, proceed to mooch off of him, try to rob and hang him, and later swindle him, all while pretending to be his friends. {{spoiler|Unlike the Disney version, however, they do get their comeuppance in the end, and when they beg for Pinocchio to help them, [[Deadly Change-of-Heart|he shows no forgiveness.]]}}
