I got a 1099k for $808. It's from refunds but was not entered as refunds. The info on 1099k says if over $20,000 or 200 transactions. How do I enter it so I am not taxed?

Paypal says they won't provide a corrected 1099K because it was not sent as refunds only stated as refunds in the descriptions and they said the amount changed since it was sent to me to go back to allow more money and transactions without being taxed.
