My testimony on how I became a member of the Illuminati. I want to know people who want to join the great Illuminati as a great member of the Illuminati who want me as a great member. His name is Lord Felix Morgan. Help me get my life back from the death stage. Discharged after about 5 years and six months. After being betrayed by so many members of the Illuminati. Over the years I was hopeless and financially on the ground. But one day while browsing the internet, I came across the post by Great Member of the Illuminati Lord Felix Morgan and said that if you were one of the great Illuminati members, you can be famous, rich and successful in life. I contacted him and I explained everything to him and he recommended the registration used and I paid for the big member to get me started and I was initiated into the World Order of the Illuminati. After that, they gave me all the guidelines and let me know that after initiation new members will be rewarded with the sum of $1,000,000 in cash. With the help of Lord Felix Morgan. I was fully initiated as a full member of the Illuminati. If your advice is that you've tried a scammer before or are, it's up to me to help you join in so try Lord Morgan. It's your best chance to become what you want in your future life. Contact him by WhatsApp +2348055459757 or email: Illuminatiofficial565@gmail.com
