I got a notification saying that the plumbots I have sold are recovered?

So, I was trying to get the plumbot statue achievement, which requires my Sim to create highest quality plumbot in the present day. For this reason, I repeatedly created plumbots and sold them immediately until I got one with the required quality. However, after this happened, the next 3 a.m, I got a notification saying Missing Sims Recovered, with the name of the plumbots that I sold. AFAIK, this shouldn't happen, they are not missing Sims, they are sold plumbots. So, is this a problem? Should I be worried if my save becomes corrupt or something? This happened in a normal world by the way, Isla Paradiso to be specific.

This was the message that I got:

Thanks in advance <3

Edit: Just checked, the plumbots that I have sold now appears in the MasterController's invite over menu as well.

Edit2: I totally annihilated all the plumbots using the MasterController, however Overwatch restored them again. This happened two times in a row. Whenever I delete them, Overwatch restores them again.

Edit3: Tested in a brand new save with just Overwatch and it didn't happen again. Probably my save is bugged or something. Maybe EA didn't delete the plumbots correctly who knows? Anyways, I don't if I can fix this. I will try to turn off the recover missing sims thing to see if it will work, otherwise will start a new save. Sorry for asking so many questions so suddenly, I tend to forget them like 99% of the time so recently I had the urge to ask them very quickly before I forgot it again. Thanks everyone <3

How are you selling them? Through the bot shop pedestal? Using that, it does look like EA just removes them from the household and doesn't properly destroy them so that'd be why OW is recovering them. Them being recovered from TA is interesting though. Are you in the world in which they were created when you use TA?
