Who duped Fidels son, Antonio Castro by posing as a 27 year old woman online?”
Or in this case, on the Internet Fidel Castro’s son wouldn’t know you’re actually a male Cuban living in exile posing as a woman just to play a number on you. Apparently, Miami-based Luis Dominguez has duped 40-year old Antonio Castro into believing that he was chatting with a 27-year old female sports journalist named Claudia Valencia, using the man’s alleged weakness for “young women and sports”. Dominguez told the BBC that he has no regrets for the deception – which consisted of eight months of on-and-off chatting – saying he wanted to expose the hypocrisy of Cuba’s leadership, who enjoy “oppulent lifestyles”. No state secrets were revealed during the chats, and it’s unclear if the sessions involved cybersex of any kind.
Fidel Castro, the former Cuban president, isn’t the only member of his family who likes to express himself online. The BBC is reporting that a Cuban exile blogger from Miami says he used a female Internet alter ego to gain access to Antonio, the 40-year-old son of Castro. Luis Dominguez said he used the character to begin an online relationship with Antonio. Capitalizing on the younger Castro’s purported interest in young women and sports, Dominguez says he snared Antonio Castro by posing as a 27-year-old female Colombian sports journalist named Claudia. Dominguez refused to apologize for the deception, saying he wanted to show the “opulent lifestyles” of the Castros.
