Sounds to me like the OP is using a VPN.


Microsoft's servers are trying to make a guess at the approximate geographical location of the OP's Mac / router based on the source IP addresses of incoming packets. When they see the source IP address that the VPN puts on the forwarding packets, they don't like that.


Note the message:

"Some users, entities and locations are banned from using this service. For this reason, leveraging anonymous or location hiding technologies when connecting to this service is not generally allowed."


As long as the OP uses the VPN, Microsoft's computers will keep rejecting the request, on purpose. Only when the VPN is shut off, will Microsoft allow the connection, at which point the OP may, or may not, run into other problems.
