Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I finally found someone speaking about my situation. I received a Composite 1099 and it has the following short term transactions apparently made by the trust as I didn't sell anything short term. 

 

SHORT-TERM TRANSACTIONS FOR WHICH BASIS IS MISSING AND NOT REPORTED TO THE IRS - Report on Form 8949, in either Part I with Box B checked or Part II

I don't understand why I would have to pay short term capital gains on disbursements I never received. They are  not listed in any of my statements, only on the 1099 Composite.  How do I handle this?  Advice is appreciated!
