Hacking device. The thieves have a device that they hold next to the car. It effectively boosts the signal of your keyfob. If the keyfob is within activation distance of the car, the device uses the keyfob to unlock the car door.

So either keep the keyfob in a metal box when you're home, or at least out of activation distance of the vehicle.
