Trigger to restrict after cleaning up the Duplicates, 
trigger MatchEmailTrigger on CustomObj__c (before insert) {
       
    set<string> emailSet=new set<string>();
    for(CustomObj__c c:trigger.new)
    {
        emailSet.add(c.Email__c);
    }
   
    list<contact> clist=[select id from contact where email in:emailSet];
    list<lead> leadList=[select id from lead where email in:emailSet];
   
    if(clist.size()>0 || leadList.size()>0)
    {
    for(CustomObj__c c:trigger.new)
    {
        c.addError('Email Exists');

If you just want to merge duplicate Account then instead of writing trigger you can use Salesforce's inbuilt functionality for merging the Accounts. Just visit your Accounts at the bottom that page there is a "Tools" section in this section click on "Merge Accounts" and then you can just move ahead with Accounts you need to merge or you can visit this link where it is discussed in detail
