When Arachnophobia first came out, the Spider's Fang had stats of 89/64. Many found it odd that the Black Widow was the second loot items listed but had better stats of 68/91.
At some point between now and then, the stats of the Spider's Fang were changed to 95/67.
I checked my what my Inventory says and the stats are indeed 95/67. I'm not complaining because I chose to redeem Spiders for this item anyways. I prefer to improve my attack score so the black Widow Armor of the Spider Squisher weren't as appealing to me. I can see players who chose the Black Widow Armor because of the low Spider cost and second best stats being upset by this change. We base our strategy off the statistics and to just change them with 2 days left of the event doesn't seem fair. If they are going to shove events down out throats, they should at least have things correct on day number one.
If anyone still cares, Mazdafreak, from the Mafia Wars Wiki sent me an image of the Poisonous Spider pop-up. I haven't gotten one yet so it was nice to see they exist.
Thanks to Igor for posting on the fan page.
