Things are getting even worse for troubled starlet Lindsay Lohan.

According to TMZ, the IRS seized all of Lohan's bank accounts after her tax problems became so extreme--to the tune of $233,904 in outstanding debts--they will no longer wait for the Liz & Dick actress to pay up.

The IRS liens are for 2009 and 2010. A generous $100,000 check from Charlie Sheen last week barely starts to fill in her financial hole.

Lohan also faces potential jail time after her arrest last week for getting in a fight in a New York club and for allegedly lying about a car accident earlier this year.
