I can say with reasonable confidence that barter is safe, it never happened to me, that's how I exclusively trade and I did it a lot, like visiting every merchant before recruiting, leveling up or resting.
I also asked in order to reproduce and document it correctly, if it can help...

just out of curiosity, where do you summon it ?

Why do you say this? If I'm telling you and someone else is telling you that NPCs will accuse you of stealing at vendors, and we're not actually stealing, just because it doesn't happen to you doesn't mean that it's not a problem. I don't normally have the problem when I am using the barter, but when I trade that's when I usually have someone accusing me of stealing. I don't know if it's something with double clicking on an item or accidentally dragging it or what, but random NPCs will suddenly come up to characters that aren't even trading and accuse them of stealing.

Trying to reproduce and document it is not something easy to do, and I shouldn't have to. We report the problem, and they should look into it and try to fix it. It's not my job to play quality control. I'm just here to help make the game better. This is supposed to be fun for me while I give them a bit of feedback here and there of what is not working. I shouldn't have to try to prove myself or sit there trying to replicate the issue for the developers.
