The statement is - False.
The vinegaroon has became very similar in appearance to the scorpions, by having similar body, similar proportions to certain species, having a whip tail. The whip tail though is not a mimic for the scorpion's pincher claws, but instead, it is a mimic of the scorpion's stinger. This adaptation of the vinegaroon has the purpose to fend of the predators by making them think that it is actually a scorpion and that they will get a nasty poisonous sting. This type of adaptations by mimicking certain traits of more dangerous species can be found in lot of animals from all shapes and sizes.
