grand larceny
on second thought, I would go with "grand larceny." "grand" is good, but it sounds better in collocation with "larceny" than "theft" (despite "Grand Theft Auto" :) Check the link for the following definition: grand theft -- the crime of theft of another's property (including money) over a certain value
please note: no need for capital letters on either "grand larceny" or "grand theft"

large-scale theft
"theft" is always stealing someone else's property. be careful with "embezzlement" - this is theft in violation of sb's trust, i.e. especially when an employee or manager steals from their own company. I don't think the Criminal Code reference has this in mind.

I think it\'s unnecessary to translate \"чужого имущества\", \'cause they
don\'t steal their own property

Depends on what they steal. If they steal money - use the word \"larceny\".
