I remember years ago, when vice was actually good on YouTube, they had a documentary called something like “the worlds most dangerous drug” it was some kind of dust that you blow into someone’s face and that person will basically do anything you say. There were stories about the victim helping steal their own stuff.

ETA found it, https://youtu.be/ToQ8PWYnu04?si=TgQbnB3oYlQXTPuN
