iPhone Contacts Duplicating Many Times via Outlook

I have almost all of my phone contacts being duplicated as many as 9 times and

In the notes section there is a comment that states:

This contact is read-only. To make changes, tap the link above to edit in Outlook

This note is repeated for as many contacts that have been duplicated

How do I stop this or fix it?

Contacts app is creating thousands of duplicates My contacts are creating duplicates in the thousands for no apparent reason. The merge option worked at first, and then the problem returned and worsened. This might be a virus but I don't want to lose all my contacts, and this may have spread to my backup and to iCloud. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
