Gamers Be Prosecuted for Virtual Stealing?" which appeared in Slate.

The Dutch Supreme Court... convicted a teenage gamer of stealing something that
doesn't exist... while playing... [an] online video game The defendant's attorney
argued that the stolen amulet and shield "were neither tangible nor material and... had
no economic value." The court, however, disagreed, ruling that the time the 13-year-old
victim spent in the game trying to earn the objects gave them value.

Studio
O a teenage gamer was guilty of the virtual theft of two objects from a video game
Help
O while objects in video games may be virtual, they are not without value
