I can't access for my Azure subscription with the following message:

We've identified suspicious activity in this subscription. To protect your account, we've disabled the subscription. Please contact Azure Support to resolve the issue.

and I received an Email as well:

Your subscription and services will be deleted on March 2, 2026

Because we detected a violation of our service terms on January 31, 2026, we’ll permanently delete your data on March 2, 2026. Please log in and save any important data before then.

If you think this is in error, please contact Azure Support for assistance.

If your Azure subscription has been disabled due to suspicious activity, it is important to address the issue promptly. You can contact Azure Support to clarify the situation and potentially resolve any misunderstandings regarding the violation of service terms. Make sure to log in to your Azure account and back up any important data before the deletion date of March 2, 2026, as your data will be permanently deleted on that date if no action is taken.

If you believe the suspension is an error, reaching out to Azure Support is the best course of action to seek assistance and possibly reactivate your subscription.
