Someone just ripped you off then. You don't buy a sim card. They're free. They come with the service. If you setup service . . . anywhere, store, website, over the phone, if you have a phone already, AT&T gives you a sim card.
If you are looking for prepaid, than maybe you might have loaded money on a prepaid account/line?

If you are looking at activating your SIM to use with a contract/postpaid service, stop by your local AT&T corporate store.

Why would you want to activate an AT&T SIM card without becoming a customer? The SIM card is what ties your device to your AT&T Account, so if you have no AT&T Account, you can't activate a SIM. This is the point people are trying to tell you. AT&T will give you a free SIM with your account, and without an account, you can not activate a SIM.
What are you trying to accomplish with the AT&T SIM card you purchased? Are you trying to put it into a phone that is locked to AT&T so you can use that phone with another carrier? Is ther somethign else you are trying to do?

I think what he means is that he is currently not an AT&T customer but is interested in becoming one as soon as his SIM is activated. He would like to start a new account with a new AT&T phone number.

Like I mentioned above, you can activate your new SIM card online by going to this link:
https://www.wireless.att.com/GoPhoneWeb/goPhoneLanding.do?method=activatePayGo
Enter the digits on your SIM card, click 'Continue', then complete the rest of the activation process. It's very simple. You will have a new account with a new phone number at the end of the procedure.
