Sorry if I'm repeating any from above, and hope these help:
магазин is not a "magazine" but a "shop"
клей is not "clay" but "glue"
фамилия is not "family" but "surname"
камера is not "camera" (really), but "cell / chamber"
шеф is not a "chef" but a "boss"
кабинет is not a "cabinet" but an "office"
экстравагантный is not "extravagant" but more "eccentric"
ангина is not "angina" but "tonsillitis" (if I've understood it right)
талон is not a "talon" (коготь) but a "token" (for the metro)
смокинг is not "smoking" but a "dinner jacket" / similar
вельвет is annoyingly not "velvet" but something like "corduroy"
лист is not a "list" but a "leaf"
инсульт is not an "insult" but a "stroke"
труп is not a "troop" but a "corpse"
... and sorry to lower the tone, but these were actually the first ones to come to my mind (because of rather hilarious mistakes I've made in the past):
шаг is not "a shag" / "to shag" but a "step"
презерватив is not a "preservative" but a "condom"
enjoy!
