Verizon transferred my 4s to a 5s a couple days ago and now my inbox has over 1000 emails and they are ones that I had deleted. HELP

Depends on your email service.  With Yahoo, Hotmail, Outlook, Live, Yahoo, and many others you just go to the desktop site and delete them.  Also, most email apps have an option to delete on server when deleted on phone, one-way sync and 2-way.  I know all the Microsoft email services allow you to go to the settings on the desktop page and into options and delete on server when deleted from phone.

Perhaps you only deleted from the device email app and not the server as well.
