Another possibility. Auction sales history is public, so everyone can see what you have bought there and then match the "anonymous" listings with your name. Then plug the information into an API mug bot, typically hosted in a discord channel. … - bogie [148747] Admin

Have you shared your API keys with anyone?
From what I can see, there are no issues. People have recognized that you are selling ranked weapons anonymously (making this bug report certainly doesn't help your case). People do not need to know that it was specifically you who sold the weapon, if they have a list of players who are known to make anonymous sales, they randomly target some of them after something gets sold on the market to see if they can fish for mugs. A large bunch of players get mugged when something gets sold, you are just seeing your own attacks. This is also the reason why some of the attacks can be hours apart.
Thanks!
The mugs against you are 5-10 minutes after your sale, it's not outrageous at all from that - some are hours after - there are numerous ways people can track this, as CJ says your own account behaviours make you an identified target.
When it comes to weapons in particular though each one has a "owner history" (for the first one at least), so people can also look this up on the API and mugging the original owner after a sale which may be you in some cases, other cases as CJ says you're basically shining a spotlight on yourself - and a mug at this time scale isn't particularly suspicious.
Another possibility. Auction sales history is public, so everyone can see what you have bought there and then match the "anonymous" listings with your name. Then plug the information into an API mug bot, typically hosted in a discord channel. When the mug bot detects a sale, it'll ping the mugger and he'll mug you. Since most items you are buying is pretty low value and yield small mugs (<3m), most script muggers won't bother, only those that are desperate for money will scroll back the discord logs and mug you minutes or even hours after your sale. Usually they can get things done within one minute (limited by 30s global cache).
Solution is join a clothing store or self hosp 24/7.
