            long contactListId = 1428507003; // Your ContactList Id here

            var client = new RestClient("https://www.callfire.com/api/1.1/rest/");
            client.Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator("YourLoginId", "password");

            var request = new RestRequest(string.Format("contact/list/{0}/remove", contactListId), Method.POST); 

            request.AddParameter("Numbers", "14252163710,14252954687");
