Question about robbing traders

[Twshadowninja]

If i rob a trader with one character and then send a differnt one in a few days will they be treated as the robber?

Yes I have had a character get killed after causing an incident at the military trading post, and the next character I brought was treated as a hostile and shot at on sight. I've had similar incidents at other locations.

That's a little silly. Are the settlements guarded by the psychic town guards from Oblivion or something?

They're pretty psychic. I've learned to be very wary of army people. Also if someone doesn't like you messing with something, it's best to get out of there! Too many times I've lost a character due to simply tresspassing or "attempting" to open something that I had no idea of the ownership. I wish doors, gates, furniture all had a special icon like when the lootable stuff that is marked with the stealing icon.

It's a small town so chances are they actually know where the characters live, so if one gets caught they should be able to tell which "group" has robbed them.
