No notice posted

I just got a 3 day notice to quit and the auction supposedly happened on Feb 19, 2010. I never had a notice of the auction sale posted anywhere on my house, nor did I ever receive a letter from the lender regards the auction date. The 3 day notice to quit did not fill out any of the servicing information filled out on the bottom of the notice. He is not returning my phone calles either.
