Comments & ID Thoughts

Its been a few days since I saw this spider but I submitted it thinking Id get a response but no one seems to know what this spider is and I have no clue as to what family it even belongs to and with numerous online research I can't seem to lay my fingers on it :(

first thought was the family Oecobidae, but also Euryopis (within Theridiidae) have some species that look like this.
I don’t know much about either, but they are a couple of suggestions for spiders that have this odd shape/stance.
It could also be an orbweaver of some kind (Araneidae)… you’d need to check the eye layout to get an idea of the family the species might belong to.
