Error 715-123420 "unusual activity" when creating our first Azure AI Foundry resource – request RTFP review
Hi,
▎
▎ We're blocked by error 715-123420 when creating our organisation's first Azure AI Foundry resource, and we'd appreciate help getting a Real-Time Fraud Protection review.
▎
▎ Error (from az deployment group what-if, preflight validation):
▎ InvalidTemplateDeployment - The following resource provider(s) - 'Microsoft.CognitiveServices/accounts (2025-06-01)' reported preflight validation errors.
▎ 715-123420 - Our system has detected this request as unusual activity for your account. If you are confident this is in error, please contact support.
▎
▎ Context:
▎ - Legitimate internal business application for an Australian company, deployed interactively from Azure Cloud Shell by a subscription Owner using a Bicep template.
▎ - This would be the first Microsoft.CognitiveServices (AIServices) resource in our tenant.
▎ - Region: Australia East. Intended model deployment: gpt-4.1-mini (2025-04-14), Standard.
▎ - The subscription has an active billing history. All required resource providers are registered and the model and SKU show as available in the region.
▎ - The same error occurred on two subscriptions in our tenant. We stopped retrying after the second attempt.
▎
▎ Tracking IDs:
▎ - fc53d2ea-5de8-4c55-8b3f-dd4e39ceb3f8 (current subscription)
▎ - 4e2c8a65-98d0-4970-982a-daea91675635 (earlier attempt, second subscription)
▎
▎ We don't have a paid technical support plan, and Azure billing support advised this isn't a billing issue. Could someone please escalate this to the appropriate team to review and lift the block? We're happy to share the subscription and tenant IDs privately.
▎
▎ Thanks!
