If you're looking for a search time solution instead of index time, one option might be rex in sed mode.

e.g.

<base search> | rex field=fieldname mode=sed "s|\d+|*|g"

SEDCMD-obfuscate_membernumber_and_payment = s/this error occurred for member[^\.]\.\s+ While making a payment of \d+/this error occured for member\*\. While making a payment of \*/
