I received a 1098-T in error. How do I make a notation that the form was issued by mistake?

I withdrew from a program that was fully grant funded and I received a 1098-T anyway. There are grades for classes on my transcript that I didn’t take (they are A’s)! It looks like potential fraud. I don’t want to report a scholarship I didn’t receive, and I want to acknowledge on my tax form that the 1098-T is erroneous. While I have notified the school of the error, it might take a long time to get a corrected 1098-T. How can make a notation in the system that this 1098-T is a mistake?

To clarify, what is reported on the 1098-T box 1 and Box 5?

Did you get scholarship money?
