1099-K received but income was for my mother

My mother rented her apartment in 2024, and the first payment (1st month rent and deposit) was made using Dwolla (online payment processor). Since this had to handled quickly and I was doing the financial part of the move, I had the money go to my bank account and then sent her the funds. However, I have now received a 1099-K for this payment (following payments did not go through Dwolla), even though my mother will be reporting the income on her taxes. Should I just mark this as "received in error" and cancel out the gross on Schedule 1, line 24z? Or do I just put the entire amount at the top of Part 1 (see attached picture)? Or do I need to do something else?
