Once again...a what am I

I bought a scallop yesterday...it died.... and as I was taking out of tank... this white crab was in there. What am I and noooo I did not put it in tank.

I think what you have is something from the pea crab family (Pinnotheridae). You frequently find them when you are eating oysters. Very common parasite in bivalves.
