Suspect in Queens robbery surprised by surveillance camera.
 
Cops are on the hunt for a dopey burglar who lifted electronics from a Queens apartment.

Surveillance video from Thursday night clearly caught the sticky-fingered gal creeping down the Astoria building's stairwell and hallway.

She ducked through a door, only to realize there were cameras keeping watch. Spooked, she then waved what appears to be a white T-shirt in front of her face in a lame attempt to conceal her identity.

Investigators say the black or Hispanic woman is somewhere between 30 and 40 years old. She was wearing a black and grey jacket, a black hooded sweatshirt, jeans and sneakers.
