Got attacked by a Dark Brotherhood assassin, and got awesome loot. It took me a few in game days to sell the second set of it I got, though. Game, give those merchants more money. I have the difficulty as low as low can be and was at level 2. It was awesome. I should use the Dark Brotherhood as my slaves that only are used for looting. Though... I like playing a poor Khajiit. I can slay ghosts, though. I can slay the undead!

Now for my character's opinion:

Klawed Flaw(Khajiit thief): I am awakened from a wonderful dream about killing a slave owner while being crowned ruler of everything and then some guy in black armor wakes me up, leaves a stab wound in my right arm, and engages me in combat! I haven't wronged anyone! Except in my dreams... And when no one is looking. What does he want with a petty thief? Oh, fetcher. My fetching arm is bleeding. He has some cloth on him, so guess I'll just cover up the wound.

You can stop the attacks by talking to someone (follow your Journal, it will tell you who) and then traveling to a place. You don't have to stay there, or even spend any time there, just go there.

However, if you want a source of income, don't talk to that guy for a while.

Another thing, I used to Wait with my back against a wall and my weapon out during this time in the game........
