These debt collectors get random debts from credit bureaus and then claim they are calling to collect a debt.  They have no agent authority to collect any debts, and try to get you to settle with them, but once they get you to agree to their agreement, they hold you to a debt you don't owe. Remember debts cannot be collected by anyone who is not a party to that debt. If you don't have a signature to a debt, you don't have that debt. What you have is an assumed debt, and can only be collected with the permission from you. So don't give any information out to anyone by phone or internet, they use wire fraud because it is easier to hide their identity, but steal yours.

Didn't answer.  Likely scam call.

The call is a fraud!   No such collection company

Message is cut off, don't know who they are looking for.  Husband and myself only people at our house and we don't have any debts.

Phone numbers left do not match what's on the website

I got a call from a different number last month mentioning Hudson Valley Collection Agency. They called and stating was message for name left blank saying they need to discuss a business matter. I called them back. The debt was for someone I've never heard of and I've had the same cell number for 10 years. The person snapped at me saying she'd take my number off the list. Not true they started calling again from different number this week. I doubt this a legit collection agency.

We've been getting several calls from this number.  At least a dozen or so!  It is a recorded message that says it's a call from the Hudson Valley Collection Agency and it's an attempt to collect a debt.  The recording does not list any name of who they are trying to contact or anything about the debt.  They just leave the phone number to call them back 888-913-7405.
My wife and I do not owe any debts and don't trust this as valid.  We've not answered or called back (yet).

They would not leave information on a debt since that would be illegal.

You need to send them a certified, return receipt debt validation (by law they have to go back to the original creditor to prove you owe the debt), cease and desist calling, or "not me" letter (this will be the best money that you have ever invested).  Also send it first class mail in case no one will sign for it.  Make a notation of that fact at the bottom of the letter.  You also need to report them to the proper agencies to which I have provided links to.  Then you need to go out and get a consumer lawyer to sue them on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket) and let them pay you for the harassment.  If everyone did these three things, these crooks would be bankrupt and we would all be the richer for it.  Use these web sites to find an attorney in your state that will probably take the case on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket up front):  http://www.consumeradvocates.org/

It is incumbent upon them under the law to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it, and that they have the legal right to collect it.  You are not obligated under the law to prove that you don’t owe or that it is paid.  

Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt.  It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes.  The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.

Read up on your rights here and also make a complaint at this government site:  http://www.consumerfinance.gov/

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

Just got another call from 888 913 7405..i keep blocking. They leave voicemail. Very disturbing to feel threatened from callers I don't know.  It's always about some important matter??? But ask for much Too much personal info.

888 913 7405 just called. Today is Saturday.i traced number to Hudson Valley NY. SAID I SHOULD CALL BACK TO DISCUSS LEGAL? MATTER. I WILL BLOCK. TIRED OF GETTING UNKNOWN CALLERS 7 DAYS A WEEK..

This lady left a voicemail in my phone about a debt collection from hudson valley Newburgh NY . She said to taking care of this matter , I have to call back at : 845-913-7405 , 646-802-0513 or 800-913-7405. She failed to identify herself and the origin of this debt ; she didn't even know if i am the real person who owed this debt because she asked me for more info and documentation but I refused to give out my personal info ..... People have to be aware of these students loans debt collection scams and fraudulent collections agencies bureau malpractice that have no agent authority to collect money and also to charge the wrong people  for illegal debt .

OK, so from everything I read in your post she did everything the law required her to do.  She cannot legally discuss the origin of the debt with anyone except the alleged debtor.  She would then have to verify who you are.  I don't see how student loans got into this conversation as I don't think that they have a contract to collect them.  Most likely you failed to read the other posts as well so you left here clueless.

Edit.  I was correct, this company is not on that list:  https://thecollegeinvestor.com/20026/student- ... e%20items...%20

Received call 1:29 AM (EDT). Caller I.D. showed: "TOLL FREE CALL". I answered and a female robo voice said something about Hudson Valley collection and i should press 1 to speak to an agent...I hung up.

I don’t know who these people are. Message said they are from Hudson Valley, and they’re trying to collect a debt. I’ve never heard of these people before, and I certainly do not owe any debt.

It is unfortunate that I just saw your post 6 years after it was made.  It contains so many errors it that it looks like you were purposely trying to mislead people.

Quote:

they are not allowed to call with out notifing you by U.S. Postal services

If you had taken the time to actually read the law you stated you would have seen that they do not need to send anything in the mail until after first contact.

Quote:

If you do owe the debt i would highly suggest you ask for a debt validation letter in the mail do not give them any personal information...if they have your phone number they have your address, you are not obligated to verify any personal information over the phone, the phone is not the proper way to validate a debt and is illegal for them to even try,

Debt validation letters must be requested in writing as per the FDCPA.  The DC does not need to accept a verbal request.  They must verify who they are talking to before discussing the alleged debt.  It is not illegal for them to call you.

Quote:

if they refuse to do so by mail then its a 90% chance they dont even own the debt and you coukd be held liable to have to pay the collect again,

They don't necessarily have to "own" the debt to collect it.  You should have talked to you lawyer before giving so much wrong advice.

Yep, Collection Bureau of the Hudson Valley which has been posted here many times in this thread.
