Special Containment Procedures: SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J cannot be completely contained. █████ network terminals influenced by SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J were isolated and put into record. Uninstall every security software in every network terminal in SCP Foundation's Chinese Branch (See Addendum 2: O5-CN's Explanation of SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J).
An example of SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J, screenshot from Agent Rambler's computer. Some parts of the pop-up are hidden.
Description: SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J is a type of computer virus that cannot be detected by any existing safety software. Network terminals infected by SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J will warn any personnel who tries to access SCP Foundation Chinese Branch's website, and "safety warning" pop-ups will appear from the safety software installed: "Foundation is fake", "website contains fraudulent information", "website has been reported by multiple users", or etc. Normally, the Foundation's website can still be accessed if this pop-up is ignored, but it is possible that it is blocked by certain security software. Description above depicts the first stage of effect of SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J.
The second stage of effect of SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J is memory-affecting and mind-affecting, and is only able to affect SCP Foundation Chinese Branch personnel (See Addendum 1: Incident Report 404). When a Chinese Branch personnel access a network terminal infected by SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J on the final days during their break, his/her memory and mind will be affected. Affected personnel will believe that " the Foundation is fake ", and that they are not actually a SCP Foundation Chinese Branch personnel. They will suddenly remember something emergent that they must do and leave the Foundation. After 12:00 pm (midnight) on the same day, SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J will automatically seize to influence the affected personnel. It is important to note that only certain personnel will experience the second stage of effect, and that the cause of it is still under investigation.
SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J existed ever since SCP Foundation Chinese Branch website was created, it is possibly created by GoIs with the intention to attack the Foundation.(See Addendum 2: O5-CN's Explanation of SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J)
On October 8th, 201█, the second stage of effect of SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J made its first appearance. A total of █████people were infected on that night, resulting in the break down of ███ Sites and ████ containment breaches throughout the country. SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J was reclassified as Keter.
"I suddenly realized something frightening, I was never even paid after working for the Foundation for so many years. Ahhhhh the Foundation is fake ahhhhhhhhh!"——Dr. B████, terminated by MTF-██-██"█████"
According to the investigation, agent Rambler was the first to be affected. The interview conducted by clinical psychologist Hannah is shown below.
Interviewed: Rambler, Level 2 security clearance agent (Abbreviated below as "R")
Interviewer: Hannah, Level 3 security clearance researcher, clinical psychologiest (Abbreviated below as "H")
<Begin Log>
H: Do you feel better now? Do you think you can be interviewed?
R: I'm fine, please go ahead. (sat erect, hands on the knees, appeared to be nervous)
H: Please describe what you experienced on the night of October 8th.
R: Okay. I had a mission at seven that night, and wanted to double check about the details before I leave. So I logged onto the Foundation's website, and that's when the pop-up appeared on the browser, saying "website contains fraudulent information". And then, you have no idea how terrible I felt…. (trembled endlessly, looked pale)
H: (Soothing tone) calm down, have some water, no rush.
[Agent Rambler held up the cup with shaking hands, drank a mouthful of it, and appeared to have calmed down a bit.]
H: Okay….can you describe how you felt?
R: (chuckled) How I felt? Imagine if you are on a plane, enjoying the beautiful sight outside, and then you suddenly remember that you forgot to turn off your stove!
H: Hmm….why did you feel this way?
R: That's when all of a sudden a thought appeared in my head: Oh yes, the Foundation is fake, but I got completely carried away. And….
I haven't even touched my fall break homework yet.
And you already know what happened after that. I ran two kilometers straight to get home, and attempted to finish my eight-days load of homework.
H: …Okay. (Paused) I think we are finished here. (Organized papers and prepared to leave)
[Agent Rambler did not move, his face took on a ghastly expression]
H: (confused) What's wrong? Are you not leaving?
R: Well….I'm sorry….but can you please bring me another pair of pants? I just wetted myself….

Conclusoin: Agent Rambler was punished with the task of cleaning the Site-CN-34's facility for one month, and was deducted half of one month's payment.
Hi everyone, I'm O5-CN-█, and am representing O5-CN today to explain SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J.
Well….SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J is actually an interference program we created to prevent unrelated personnel from entering Foundation's website and creating unnecessary problems. When unrelated personnel enter, SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J will warn them that "the Foundation is fake". Then….well….they of course will exit, won't they?
Hmm….we didn't expect that SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J would be planted into our internal network, please accept our apologies. Effective safety precautions had been given to each Site's database and network maintenance staff.
Last but not least, please remember, of course the Foundation is real. Our purpose is to: Secure, Contain, Protect.
"Those weird pauses in the explanation made everything even more suspicious!" ——Dr. B████, had been dragged away and [DATA EXPUNGED]
"Seriously?! Your safety precaution is to uninstall all security and anti-virus softwares?! WTF" ——Dr. Tictoc, responsible for Site-CN-34’s database and routine network maintenance
"I bet this [DATA EXPUNGED] is because the Foundation is fake after all! I was tricked into this! My youth was so wasted! If I had devoted my time and energy to selling bacon flavored
toothpastes——"——Researcher Prism who was in an emotional state.
Researcher Svba suddenly popped out of nowhere and appeared beside Researcher Prism, and quickly injected tranquilizer into the latter. Hereafter, Researcher Prism and his wheelchair disappeared with Researcher Svba. According to testings, Researcher Prism was affected by the second stage of effect of SCP-CN-4041⁄2-J.
"Taking into account the great traditional spirits of Chinese, their respect for the old, and their love for the young, O5-CN decided to excuse Research Prism from punishments for bullshitting in public, and to award this month's 'Foundation Smart-ass Star Badge' to Researcher Svba who is both quick-minded and action oriented."——O5-CN-█
1█.█, 201█, Site-CN-34's database and network maintenance personnel Dr. Tictoc fainted after overworking and spending ███ hours repairing system's high-risk vulnerabilities by hand.
"O5-CN decided to award this month's 'Foundation Labor Star Badge' to Researcher Tictoc, and to honor his industriousness, bravery, and commitment to his work."——O5-CN-█
"Sooner or later, this fucked up Foundation is gonna end."——Dr. Tictoc
