Punch her in the dick and run off giggling, every so often insult her family and threaten to take her mom out for dinner but never call her again just to keep the aggro.

Ok, don't try this if your lag is high.
Find a piece of flat, open area, with just a bit of cover to dodge behind if she warps you. Lure her over, but get the rest of your team to quickly mop up any other enemy.
Then just keep running back and forth with her in the center.
The trick here is to NOT stay in her melee zone for any amount of time -- always be moving. Banshee's sync-kill is restricted to her melee range, so as long as you're out of it, you're fairly safe. Do note that due to lag, she might see you as in her melee range and initiate, at which point you become magnet bait.. so don't do this when there's heavy lag.
You want to run past her, get maybe 10 meters up, turn around, do something to her. Attack her, shoot her, whatever. The main point is to grab her attention more than your teammates are. You want somewhere clear where you can definitely get a good running space, but with some upright cover so that you can dodge behind to avoid the warp.
Repeat as many times as you can. If you see her starting to charge up for teleports, prepare an exit strategy -- run. She usually don't sync-kill immediately out of teleport, so the main thing is to get out of melee range as quickly as possible.
You can't keep this up forever, so it's imperative that your teammates are somewhat competent at killing things quickly.
Now that's for one Banshee. For two or more.. well if you have three Banshees on you, you're screwed. But for two, learn the whole map so that you can visualize a lap. Then do that lap -- run up maybe 10 meters, turn around, shoot them, get their attention, then continue the lap. I've done this on Ghost/ Gold before, Extraction Wave so I just kited them back and forth. Then took a short cut and got out of dodge when the shuttle arrived.

I love hit'n'running when I play infiltrator, the problem is that there's always someone else willing to run off to play the hero and I'm usually stuck at the hack/drone babysitting just to up the number of warm omnitools keeping the timer up.
The problem is that these requests or votes never come up. Hell, half the time people don't even know enough to let the duration infiltrator do the hack objectives.
Half the time? Try all the ****ing time. Then there's those who stand right on top of you, drawing all those fuzzy rockets...<_<
Quite true.
I will readily distract the Banshee with anyone but the worst one for the job is the N7 Shadow. She's squishy, electric slash makes you get closer, and shadow strike is just an invitation for an unwanted hug.
My favorite characters to kite with however are the Salarian Engineer and N7 Fury.

I have no problem being Banshee bait. Especially if I'm playing Infiltrator since I normally equip an Acolyte pistol to strip barriers quick then just cloak get some distance if needed then tear threw the armour.

Human Vanguard. Charge to keep up barriers and combat roll back immediately afterwards to avoid instakills. Works best with an Eviserator ready for when her barrier goes down.

If ever you need to get the Banshee away from you, ask a kroguard to stop by. Banshees LOVE kroguards. I've had three chase me around a platinum match while my teammates finished the objectives.
