As the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is in effect tomorrow, I am getting rid of all personal data from our development databases. However for some databases just deleting users in not an option, so I am replacing all the data with dummy values. I wrote a little script which updates all table rows in the Users Table in a Microsoft SQL Server database with dummy data.
--Declare and initialize Incremental Variable
DECLARE @IncrementValue int
SET @IncrementValue = 0
--Updates all table rows
UPDATE AspNetUsers
SET Email = CONCAT('user',@IncrementValue, '@example.com'),
Username = CONCAT('user',@IncrementValue, '@example.com'),
Name = CONCAT('User ',@IncrementValue),@IncrementValue=@IncrementValue+1
Running this script produces the following result:

Mission accomplished! Dummy data in a few seconds.
