Been playing a couple weeks now, and I enjoy grinding up cash doing bounty hunting. Up until now, I have been doing this at nav points in non-anarchy systems. So I decided to try out a kill warrant scanner in an anarchy system today and it works fine and all, until all of a sudden it seems like every ship in the area begins attacking me. These aren't ships in wings. I know enough to understand if I attack a 3 wing ship, I am getting some buddies to jump in. My issue is that I do not understand what I am doing to get all this aggression.
For example, today I warrant scanned a cobra who had a 30k bounty on him. He was not in a wing. I killed him and got the bounty. Next thing I know, I have 4 "system security ships" attacking me. What am I doing wrong? I didn't even realize anarchy systems had security in the first place, let alone know why they are mad about me taking out a wanted criminal. Any help would be appreciated since my bounty hunting isn't very profitable at nav points in safe systems.
