    There are at least two possibilities.
    1. The on line source scammed you.
    2. The license is genuine, and you need to make the phone call to MS
    concerning activation.
    (There are a number of reasons why on line activation can go awry.)

    You should try telephone activation and if necessary stay on the line for an
    operator and explain.

    I had the exact same problem as you, and a call to Microsoft was all that was needed.

    Perhaps because the caps lock key is stuck?
