Since this is the app store, the only law that really counts is US law. All of this is going through Apple which does business in the US.

Actually I'm not sure that's true, since for instance Apple curate different stores for different regions, and my purchases appear on my credit card statement as:

06/11/2011 APPLE ITUNES STORE SYDNEY AUS $1.98

IANAL but you can probably go after these guys in any of the jurisdictions that the knockoff app is sold in.
