Crypto firm bZx said Friday that hackers have stolen millions of dollars in multiple currencies.

Many users who agreed to unlimited spending have had their funds stolen from their wallets.

According to bZx, the breach began with a phishing email sent to a developer's personal computer.

However, the Word document in the email contained a malicious macro, which caused the script to run on his personal computer.
