Answer 1

try this

 public static bool CheckUserData(string phone, string config)
    {
        string sql = @"SELECT * FROM AspNetUsers WHERE PhoneNumber = @PhoneNumber";
        using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(config)
            )
        {
            conn.Open();
            using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, conn))
            {
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PhoneNumber", phone);
                SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection);
                if (reader.HasRows)
                {
                    return true;  // data exist
                }
                else
                {
                    return false; //data not exist
                }
            }
        }
    }
