Deleting leads in bulk

I need to delete several thousand leads. I've identified them outside Marketo and have a list ready to go. What do I do next in order to match my outside list with the Marketo leads in order to delete the Marketo leads?

You could import/de-dedupe them into a Static List, then select all List Members and delete out of the system. That's a big number there, so just make sure you've exported any important data (or synced them to your CRM) if you need to reference it later. Hope this helps!

Please use Delete Lead CRM=F unless you really want to delete that record.

Try to only delete non CRM records or at least SFDC Leads only. If you delete customer data or other things you may cause a problem for Finance or Legal.
