Unfortunately this happens quite often.  Either someone mistakenly entered your SS number on their return or intentionally.  In any case if their tax return was received by the IRS and accepted, then you can only print and mail your tax return.  If you are owed a tax refund the IRS will pay the refund.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for printing a tax return for mailing - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/printing/help/how-do-i-print-and-mail-my-return-in-turbotax-online...

 

Shortly, within a year, the IRS will be sending you and the other party an inquiry in the mail to determine who was incorrect in entering you as a dependent.  Respond to any IRS notices you receive as the loser of the investigation must pay back any refund plus penalties and interest.
