    They are a relative of the Camel Spider. I believe they are called sun spiders. Rumored to have been brought back thru shipments from the middle east.

    hey Doug! Yeah, we actually had a camel spider outside our office today, they get huge and they have no fear. As a matter of fact they will throw up their front legs and charge you.

    very popular here in AZ. They will charge you and they're fast as hell...When we first moved into our newly built home in the desert, we found a lot of them. Everytime the bug guys dumped poison at our home, i would find them dead around the house...scary as fuck.
