Metadata Contains a reference that cannot be resolved error

Hello,

I have this simple c# console application code...

using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Security;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Client;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Query;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Client.Services;

namespace QueryContact
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate (object s, X509Certificate certificate, X509Chain chain, SslPolicyErrors sslPolicyErrors) { return true; };
CrmConnection con = new CrmConnection("CRMOnline");
OrganizationService service = new OrganizationService(con);
Guid gid = new Guid("67b46a03-2bad-e811-a964-000d3a3606de");
try
{
Entity account = service.Retrieve("account", gid, new ColumnSet(true));
Console.WriteLine(account.Attributes["name"]);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
}

Console.ReadLine();

}
}
}

that throws this error:

Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'xxxxxxxxxxx.crm.dynamics.com/.../Organization.svc'.
