Did you pay for a black widow ? I wouldn’t of bought one with those pics

They look black widow ish, could just be a Sherman nem. If the seller didn’t want to send you pictures of the oral plate I would expect a scam. Real BW sellers will always want to prove their product by showing pictures of the oral plate. The plate should be black with white striping and the tips of the tentacles should be red with or without white speckling. If the seller sends you a Sherman I would definitely ask for a refund, if they refuse then open a claim with PayPal about it (if that’s how you paid)
