Strangely enough, almost this exact same thing happened to me.
Apparently I was accountable for my ex-wife's tax bill (for a year in which we were not married) well after our divorce...in a state I never worked in.

They just took it. I happened to have a little in savings, and had just gotten my paycheck the day they took everything...so they got a decent amount (relative to me at least).
Also, once they decide to take your money it's nearly impossible to get it back.
