The law is fairly smart. It is flexible enough to recognize the difference between a simple clerical error or misstatement and an intentional deception.
In this case, OP provides plenty of evidence that this would be a case of intentional deception. Contract law as implemented in most US states says that clerical errors are presumed to be correctable while intentional deception may either invalidate the contract or allow it to be enforced as originally stated.
