ROME, Italy -- A mysterious bearded man in Rome is wanted by police for using hypnotism to mesmerize cashiers and bank tellers while he steals thousands of dollars.
Surveillance video from inside a store that aired on CCTV showed the man walking up to a supermarket cashier and apparently mesmerizing her before stealing cash.
The same man is believed to be responsible for robbing banks.
A bank teller said the man approached her, leaned over and told her to "look into my eyes," the report said. The next thing she noticed was her till was empty.
That sounds like a Gilligan's Island episode, "Ring Around Gilligan," in which mad scientist Vito Scotti planned to rob Fort Knox by hypnotizing the castaways into being his accomplices.
