**************************************************

The local village "gossip" is going on about some Thai Thieves working
their way around the area. I am being told that this was also reported
recently in one of the Thai newspapers (Daily News?).

Basically I'm told the "Thieves" act out that they are selling some
product to the potential victim and somehow rub some kind of "drug"
onto the skin. This drug supposedly does not knock you out, but puts
you in some kind of daze or trance where you willingly hand over your
money, jewelry, whatever.

The locals are insisting it is true and even have a couple of local
Farangs convinced (but not this one ermm.gif )

Anybody else heard of such a story being reported. If such a drug
exists, it sure sounds like it's got some potential for more than just
stealing money, jewelry.
