Hey, I have A LOT of fake contacts in my contact list. Like, around 10 for each letter.
I don’t understand why and how they got there. Theyre not even dupes. Added a pic for full clarity.
why do I have them? And how can I get rid of them without deleting one by one?
thanks in advance!

Might you have authorized an app to have access to your Contacts? Facebook and LinkedIn are both known for flooding contacts if you give them a chance. From that one example I would say check LinkedIn first.
Either you or someone with access to the iCloud or other email account you're syncing contact with added them. They don't add themselves.
You mean I could’ve added them without knowing I did?
No. I mean someone had to add them...
I suppose if your memory is extremely poor or you regularly get blackout drunk, you may have done so, but I'm not making any accusations, just stating fact.
You may not have added them. But someone with access to your account may have.
