I am pretty sure it was a phishing scam. The scammers are getting smarter and smarter these days. Be careful and skeptical of that call you received. Hopefully they were not trying to pull information from you.

The Visa I have is not connected to a bank (that I know off)
Good point with the phising. They did not ask me for information or make me call another number though. They just told me what happened and that they would be replacing my card. I have called Visa myself later on because I needed one more transaction to go through.
