" I can't possibly pay these people another months rent when they can't keep track of the rent I have already paid. "
So,,, are you trying to get evicted? If you are planning on living there in February, you're going to have to pay the rent for Feb. Where is the Feb rent supposed to come from if you don't pay it? You don't really expect to live there for free, do you? Your plan is stupid.
Going forward, pay the rent and get a receipt. I rented for many years and never had a problem doing this.

The next day I received a note on my door stating that I had three business days to pay my rent or I would be evicted. I thought nothing unusual about this because I have received these several times in the past year from the front office
- The only reason you would not find this unusual is if you are constantly late. Your rent is DUE on the 1st of every month not the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. My guess is that they give you a grace period(4 days perhaps?) before they assess any late fees and you take FULL advantage of it.
I can't possibly pay these people another months rent when they can't keep track of the rent I have already paid.
- BAD MOVE. The January rent is under investigation and it sounds like if they wanted to evict you they could have already. This does NOT change the fact that you still owe February. If you don't pay February they could still evict you because of non-payment.
If you are worried about them "loosing" this payment. Then when you give them the Money Order make sure you get a receipt from them showing it was received. That way if they do "loose" it you have a receipt showing that they received it.
