The Federal Bureau of Investigation said the "Pink Lady Bandit" robbed the BB&T on Raleigh Street in Hamlet on Friday afternoon.
The suspect is described as a woman weighing 130 pounds and standing about 5 feet, 5 inches tall.
The FBI called the woman the “Pink Lady Bandit” because in at least two of the robberies, she carried a distinctive pink handbag, authorities said.
Officials said the woman is believed to have robbed four banks along the East Coast – one each in Pennsylvania; Delaware; Ayden, North Carolina; and Hamlet, North Carolina.
In each case, the suspect showed the teller a note that demanded money, the authorities said.
