i received this call but also did not answer it.

I received a call today from these yutzes. The caller I.D. showed it as "Cavalry". The message that was left was some lame music. I assume that an operator got online after that but they didn't say anything.
When I called them back they said that they had some personal documents to discuss with me as I am doing business with them. I told him that I had never heard of Cavalry and to not call me again and hung up on him.

I answered a call from them. A woman spoke fast asked for me by my first name, then called me by my last name. She asked for my last four numbers of my ss#, to which I answered who she was. She said something like Calvery. She kept insisting I give her my last 4 of my ss#, then she read off my mailing address and asked if I would verify it. I told her nothing. Then she said something about my business. I informed her that I don't have a business then hung up.

Found on another site; but it jells with what I know:

Cavalry Portfolio Services LLC ( often mistakenly spelled Calvary Portfolio Services) is a collection agency focusing on the collection of delinquent consumer debt.
    Calvary Portfolio Svcs LLC
    PO Box 1030
    Hawthorne, N.Y.
    1+(866) 434-4966
    www.cavalryportfolioservices.com
They often collect or purchase credit card debt including debt from the MBNA credit card company. If Cavalry Portfolio has contacted you if may have been via an aggressive collection tactic such as annoying phone calls from bill collectors, collection letters, and/or legal proceedings.

Also...

If you refuse to verify any information and insist that they tell you what the matter is about before you verify anything; they can't continue and will eventually hang up. (Apparently it breaks some states laws if they do.)

Early morning call demanding to speak with a family member who doesn't live here.   I said so and then started asking me questions, like when was the last time I saw them.   I asked who this was and he said John Deere and that my family member was his customer --- extremely unlikely.

Caller was rude and insulting and I hung up.

People send them a cease and desist letter.  Also if they call outside of guidlines times send them to small claims to pay you 1000 each time.

I have been receiving calls from this number along with at least 3 other numbers. I finally answered and they asked my name then wanted me to verify my social...I told them I would not verify any personal info over the phonem then they asked me to verify my address....again I told them I would not verify any personal info over the phone. I asked what is was about and they replied they had personal documents in their office but needed me to verify ky info. I said absolutely not...he said the phones calls will continue.  I say go ahead I don't care if you call 50 times a day I will not give out any personal info to someone over the phone. These idiots didn't even state what company they are with and if they are a debt collecter they didn't even state "this is an attempt to collect a debt" waste your time and waste your phone calls you are NO INFO FROM ME!!!

Caller asked for Sheliah Jones; Apparently, this account is being sold from agency to agency with my name and number intact as I have been advising several different agencies for the past 5 or six YEARS that this person is unknown to me and not affiliated with my number. Recently, I spoke to Adriana (unintelligible) who identified her agency as Cavalry (or Cavalier) Portfolio Services. I repeated my affirmation to her and asked her to remove my number. I don't expect it to matter, for it'll only be sold to another collection agency.  They have called every day except weekends for the past month and a half. I usually ignore the calls, but I'm tired of being harassed. I am keeping a log of all the calls, and I expect soon to start answering and recording my requests to stop calling me -  to verify that I've asked them to stop.

I too get calls from this number too. I simply do not answer any calls if it can't be clearly identified who the caller is. For me this is especially true for "toll free" numbers.
I don't care what number you call from. If you can not identify yourself clearly to me, do not even bother to call, and if you do not leave a proper message, DO NOT EXPECT ME TO CALL YOU BACK

On 10/18/2012 - call came in while out; no msg left; am on DO NOT CALL.

Cavalry debt collectors

Annoying calls with vague messages... Got 3 calls today alone!  Thankfully my phone can block calls I don't wish to receive!!!  So their officially blocked...!!!  If they wish to speak with me send me this important documentation they wish to discuss first!!!!

A woman wished to speak with a particular manager regarding a personal business matter, adding that her call was being monitored for quality and assurance purposes.  Having heard this line many times before, I asked pointblank whether she represented a debt collector.  She refused to answer, repeating her purpose, and I replied that managers' calls must be screened before they can be transferred.  She started overtalking me, loudly stating that it was none of my business and demanding his voicemail.  I was in the process of telling her that personal calls aren't permitted here when she hung up.  Researching the number led to Cavalry Portfolio Services, a collection agency.
