The crime happened on 173rd Street in Fresh Meadows shortly after 6:00 p.m.
Investigators said two men told a 15-year-old boy that they were New York City police officers armed with a search warrant.
They pushed their way inside and tied up the boy and his 17-year-old sister.
The suspects got away with a cell phone, perfume and the hard drive for the home security system, which apparently was not working.
