Regular theft has the added benefit (for the victim) of the thief having to show up on-site in order to steal anything.
That puts him squarely in the jurisdiction of whatever country the victim lives in, with all the complications that entails (for the thief, that is.)
This is basically theft where there is no risk for the thief.

Sure, my point is just that the difference isn't in legality or possibility for recourse, but in the probability of successful enforcement of the law. The problem isn't so much that the thief is in another country, even if he lives next door to you, it's impractically hard to track him down unless he makes a mistake.
