I get a mission to kill two bounty hunters in a system, So how do I recognize a bounty hunter? It does not say bounty hunter when I do a scan. also I got a message to abandon that contract and instead kill 5 pirates. I like killing pirates, but I don't want to confuse the mission, I want to hunt the 2 bounty hunters for my faction. I saw someone shooting a wanted ship, so I assumed he was a bounty hunter, so I killed him and got a huge murder fine and my bounty hunting count did not go down. So how do I find bounty hunters?

Try unidentified signal sources.
Just hang around at the nav beacon. They will scan you with no message until they see your legal status. They will be clearly different from the system authority ships as they will be unmarked.
Bounty hunters are clean so you get a fine for killing them. You find the easily in nav beacons when they come up to you, do a quick scan and say something in comms like "You are clean. You are free to go". Just like pirates just that they dont scan for cargo but for bountys. You might be able to check their modules and if they have a kwarrant scanner they are probably bounty hunters
get yourself a small bounty and visit USSes in anarchy systems without bringing any cargo.
bounty hunters will scan you and attack, usually with a revealing message ("You are wanted in this sector", 'Perpetrator detected!',...)
most pirates will leave you alone after seeing you have no cargo. (some get angry if you scan them though)
traders won't even scan you
no security ships in anarchy
oooooooooooooooohhhhh a talking cow
