Owning store causing Reputation loss?

My Sim has had a pristine rep and not a false step taken. I bought a retail store to start selling some artwork and both times after I closed up shop (selling a few paintings) I continue to get phone calls about being a thief and my reputation plummets. Is this a bug of some sort or does it have anything to do with the markup? I play with some cc but no mods.

  • I've had similar, not owning a place but my vampires being accused of biting without asking even tho they've not bitten anyone, even my actual klepto didn't get accused, only my goid Sims have been, I hope it's a bug they can fix
  • If they are celebrity use the PR on their cell and can ask for story to get goid rep added back, it helps just may have to do it alot

    PR isn't for all celebrities, it's only if you actually spent fame points to earn the PR perk.


    And this issue has a thread about it over on the AHQ:

    I think that if any Sim sees any other Sim attempt to steal something, then for some reason the blame gets attributed to you.
    Running a retail store, you've probably had a few customers come in who are Kleptos and probably try to steal a poster off the wall or something.
    In clear view of literally every other customer in the store.
    It might be triggering this bug.
  • Thank you for your responses and insight. I will read the other thread and see what else I can learn.
