false or fake entries in my address list for emails

Hi leenme,

welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community.

Re: "false or fake entries in my address list for emails: What are they and how to get rid please"

We are all Apple users, like yourself, in the community, so we have no access toyour accounts or details.

We'd like to help however.

The address list entries may be duplicate entries from people who are on more than one of your contact lists. You can merge duplicates, so some entries do not show.

Apple support have articles online (links below) that can help guide you:

You can check address lists in the Contacts app:

eg: to see which lists are current, or which may need updating / which need deleting:

Use other contact accounts on iPad - Apple Support

Eg: says: Show or hide a list

Tap Lists, tap Edit, then select the lists you want to see.

This button appears only if you have more than one source of contacts.

NB: You can also check / use your email provider's website to view contact lists on each account.

______________________________________________________________________

To change how your contacts are sorted and displayed, go to Settings > Contacts.

______________________

Merge duplicate contacts:

To keep redundant contacts from appearing in your All Contacts list, contacts from different sources with the same name can be linked and displayed as a single unified contact.
