I believe you are referring to the “recent contacts” feature.

If that’s the case the way I’ve found to stop it is you go File > Preferences.

Then select Contacts and there is a tickbox called “Do not automatically add:”

Select that then modify it to the degree you want and OK it.

then open your personal address book and you can delete the recently added contact from the Recent Contacts view.
