Maybe Fabs can chime in on this one since it right up his alley. In my opinion it sounds as though they missed a step. I was under the impression they have to send you notice of their intent to levy an account and give you the option of paying the tax prior to the attachment. This being some ridiculous "cigarette tax" thing though perhaps they have some "out" that allows them to dig right in. Doesn't sound right to me though.
One thing you might be able to do is contact them and file a greivance because they can't prevent you from surviving with basic services. They have to leave you with something to pay for food, shelter, etc. If not then just jump on the welfare role and feed off the liberal scum system until you get your money's worth.
One more thing...you guys might consider giving up those coffin nails. That's a lot of cash to hand over for such a silly cause.
BTW...your balance probably reflects what they attempted to collect. It will all clear over night but they will have to levy again in order to get more. No deposits in the bank until you see where you stand.
