Description: Originally a widespread Internet meme. SCP-4130-1 was created by a group of humans in differing ages and locations, by using an image deep-fryer. As soon as SCP-4130-1 was created, it spread from the computers containing it to any computers connected to it. SCP-4130-1 replicates itself as slightly varying images. These images all contain the same picture of a photo-realistic orange with hands, feet, and a human-like face, with slight variation in the form of JPEG artifacts, colour distortion, and variations in the facial features.These images contain a memetic kill agent that causes confusion, stomach sickness, blindness, bleeding from the eyes and mouth, and/or headaches. Left untreated, these symptoms will progressively get worse, ending with the victim suffering a seizure. Currently, 562 separate instances have been contained, with 297 known instances yet to be contained.
