Have you tried Windscribe?
Why would you need to fake it? They ask for additional security when logging in? Can you set up 2FA next time when you are able to login? Normally, the problem is then solved.

I know that you need to be from another country, But you have not mentioned why. Usually, you get better answer when you state what it is for. Have you tried
NordVPN
Surfshark
ExpressVPN
IPVanish
VyperVPN
They normally seems to work with Skype:

I agree with you in most cases, but when it comes to companies like Microsoft, Netflix, Adobe, etc., they actively work to block the most well known VPN providers.
That's exactly why it's not a good idea to rely on simple Google searches︀ to find working solutions unless you're looking to waste your time.
These companies invest in︁ technology to detect and remove VPNs from accessing their content, so typical approaches may not︂ always work.

Pro tip: for such use cases use a vpn that has one of those streaming modes, they are basically made for this purpose. And if privacy is a concern you can place a privacy respecting VPN or something else up front.
Edit: with streaming mode I mean that some large VPN providers have this special option to watch e.g. Netflix from another country, this is as close as a VPN is going to get to a residential proxy or the like

Quite many VPNs offer this feature, you can check Google, for example this

An alternative would be to setup your own server on a cloud server. It requires some setup but generally is a stable solution

If you know somebody in the country you need, you could also try
https://pairvpn.com/https://meshnet.nordvpn.com/features/routing-traffic-in-meshnet/traffic-routing-androidThese basically route all traffic from your through a device under your (or a friend's) control in the country you need. As it routes it through a real residential device, the chances of detection are basically zero.

My main question is what is the actual use case. Just for login, you can use any proxy / residential vpn with low bandwith or use a friend to route the traffic through his phone. For streaming, you need more bandwith. And last but not least, many geoblocks are not implemented on the server itself but on a DNS level. I.e. when you try to resolve www.microsoft.com the ip address given differs on your own location. That is︀ why many VPN actually use smart DNS servers to get the real IPs of the︁ intented country.
Technically yes, that's why I did not recommend him to︃ use the Google Cloud VPN etc. If you use a sufficiently small hoster, it definitely︄ works.
As I do not know the desired service you want to use, the desired︅ country and wheter you have friends/family/a home server there, you can check yourself whether a︆ private VPN, friend's phone as proxy server, commercial residential proxies (often only major countries available)︇ or a personal RustDesk – The Open Source Remote Desktop Access Software session to your︈ home works best.

Your own proxy isn't hard to build.
