They Took More than I Owed!

Q: The judgment against me was for $5,125, how could the Judgment Enforcer take $8,233 from my bank account?

A: This judgment was more than a few years old. In California there is a state-mandated (currently) 10% a year simple interest on judgments. Other states may have different interest rates.

Besides the interest owed, any (reasonable and legal) costs a Judgment Enforcer incurs is added to the judgment debt. So, while you avoid paying this judgment - costs and interest add to the total amount you owe. The Judgment Enforcer's goal is to encourage you to pay, or arrange for a sheriff to take what you owe.
