Can credit cards that I owe money to and they get a judgment on me attach my bank account when I'm on disability and that's my only income?

I'll assume you are speaking of a disability check from the United States government. Typically those cannot be attached.
However, and it may be a hair split, if that check is deposited in a bank, the bank account might be susceptible to an attachement.
You should consult an attorney specific to your state and see what he says. Or, if you are vey concerned, you can simply have your check sent to you, and cash it at a check cashing place. There is a modest fee, usually a dollar or so, but that is better than losing all.

If you attach a statement to an account on your credit record saying this account does not belong to you can this account be used for a FICO Score?
It is not possible to "attach a statement to an account". It is only possible to place a consumer statement on your report. This is important distinction and should answer the remainder of your question. In general, your statement, which may refer to a certain disputed account, shows to all who access your credit. But the fact that it is separate from the account itself means that the account would be used in the calculation of your credit scores.

Yes, that is the way a garnishment works. When the credit card company sues you for non-payment of debt, they win a judgment. The judgment can be a garnish on your paycheck or your bank account. It makes no difference who you have a bank account with if they were awarded the garnishment by court.
