Facebook has made a bank robber more popular than he likely would prefer. Dubbed the "Geezer Bandit," the bank-robbing old man's wrinkled face appears on t-shirts and thousands of people "like" him on one of the two Facebook pages set up to honor the crook.
 
Photos of the Geezer Bandit show him to be between 60 and 70 years old, although authorities claim he could be someone younger disguised under a lifelike special effects mask. Regardless, they warn, he is an armed and dangerous menace.

One frequent commentator on a Facebook site said he is pleased to see a robber targeting Bank of America. "Talk about a bunch of crooks glad to see you got some of the American people's money back," Kenny Walsh wrote.

The Geezer Bandit is believed to have robbed 13 banks over the last several years.
