Notice Given Over the Phone for Unpaid Rent

My question involves an eviction in the state of: Pittsburgh, PA

I had an judgment in November which I paid off. I notified rent office that my unemployment was cut but I will get caught in February for all month and then some. I was told over the phone that they were giving me a 10 day notice and they will have the Sheriff come and lock me out for back rent of December. I never received a letter from them or the Magistrate. Are the allowed to do this to me without written notice just over the phone.

Please let me know. Thanks you very much!!!

In the state of Pennsylvania, a Notice to Pay or Quit MUST be in writing and MUST include some very specific information.
