Investigators say one of the women approached the 38-year-old victim on the Q train platform on November 16 and spoke to her in a language she didn't understand.
The other woman, police say, stood behind the victim and bumped into her.
After the women walked away, the victim boarded a train and realized the wallet in her purse was gone.
Investigators say the wallet itself was valued at $100.
It contained $30 cash, personal identification, four debit cards and two credit cards.
