Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Florida

With Florida Statute 718.116 (11) how and what does the association need to present me with a request for me to my rent to them instead of the landlord. So for the accosiation has stuck a typed letter in my door. It does not have my name or the amount that is owed. I talked to my landlord and he said if i pay my rent to the association that he will start the eviction process. Also he said if I pay my rent to him that the company lawyers will represent me if any actions are brought against me by the association.
