Swastika
Swastika denotes luck and goodness in India. But did you know that this Swastika was used as a symbol by Nazis? It was used in their flag. So it is considered as evil in western countries.
Addendum: Swastika was considered to be the symbol of Aryans. Since Germans believed that they were descendants of Aryans, the Thule society, which was a powerful secret folk organization had Swastika as its symbol. Hitler was a member of this society. Later he chose this as Nazi symbol.
