I don't know your card-usage habits, but if it was triggered by a jail phone operator within the US, it's much more likely your account information was taken at an unrelated time/event than this breach.
If stealing card/account information was their goal, there are a lot easier ways to do it. Any time you use your card at a non-official ATM, put it down to pay at a restaurant or even not shredding any mail with account information, you're putting yourself at risk. Heck, account information can be social engineered out of people quite easily as well - your particular usage habits could have nothing to do with it.
