Maybe they got bit by it and had to type quick before the venom took hold so they missed some letters?

Way to go, now the Spider Mafia is going to find him and break his legs for sure.

I don't know anything about insects, but maybe some sort of running crab spider, e.g. Philodromus cespitum?

Apparently Australians feel the same about North Americans living around bears. Either way, you just learn to be cautious and mind your own business.
