Wario Apparition Potion Scam

The Wario Apparition Potion Scam refers to fraudulent liquid beverages inside containers that are themed around the infamous Super Mario 64 phenomenon, the Wario Apparition. These scams are popularized by the "DO NOT DRINK (insert word) POTION AT 3 AM" videos done by YouTubers like ImJayStation and N&A Productions, and it is highly likely that these were based off of these videos. Common descriptions of the supposed effects of the Wario Apparition Potion include finding the Wario Apparition instantly upon playing Super Mario 64, or even transforming into Wario himself. In reality, Wario Apparition potions are most likely either lethal or do nothing and all.

A reminder must be put out that most Wario Apparition potions are potentially lethal and that they should not be bought at all costs. These substances may contain illegal substances or poison, and they might kill you if you decide to drink them.

Common Description
Wario Apparition potions have been reported to be on numerous websites on the "deep web", or rarely on E-Bay. Commonly, these deep web websites are shopping services for "potions" such as it, along with other fraudulent items popularized by clickbait deep web videos. The appearance of the potion itself is akin to classical depictions of potions; similar to a chemical flask. The liquid that the potion has would usually be either yellow or a light purple, akin to the color of Wario's clothes.

Title listings for Wario Apparition potions are usually in all caps, and are usually typed as "WARIO APPARITION POTION (ACTIVATES AT 3AM)" or something along that. Descriptions in deep web websites state that the Wario Apparition potion would activate if it was drank at 3 AM; the witching hour. Common effects that supposedly happen when the potion's drank include an instant encounter with the Wario Apparition when Super Mario 64's booted up afterwards, and/or transforming into Wario. The latter effect is parallel to some clickbait YouTube videos who's videos include them transforming into something that's related to the potion itself.

Actual effects of the potion range from being lethal to being nothing more than just water. Some of these potions are reported to either include poison or drugs. The taste of the benign potions is reported to have a rotted garlic flavor to it.

Trivia

 * Around early-middle 2019, MDMA pills having the shape of Wario have been discovered in Japan. It is unknown if this is connected towards the Wario Apparition potion scams.
