Accomodation canceled

I booked by accommodation through this website, my credit card details were inputted correctly. however i have received an email from the hotel

"Unfortunately the given credit card details are unvalid. Please send us a valid credit card number with expiry date, that we can guarantee your reservation. The other possibilty is a bank transfer in advance."

I went to the bank TODAY!!! they told me the deposit went through!!!
The site said that i would pay the deposit only and pay the rest when i arrive. why has the hotel or that site also tried to get another $200 extra when it was deposit only???

IS THIS A SCAM?
