Castro's Heir Falls for Bogus Internet Romance

clipped from www.switched.com Castro's Son Fooled by Online Romance by Caleb Johnson — Jun 15th 2009 at 1:30PM Apparently, Cuba's Castro family is much easier to fool than you would think. A couple of Miami DJs pranked former leader Fidel in 2003, and now, a Miami blogger and Cuban exile claims that he fooled Antonio Castro (pictured), Fidel's 40-year-old son, into believing that he was a female Colombian sportswriter -- posting the evidence online. Dominguez used his virtual tryst with Antonio to not only point out how easily it was to penetrate the notoriously guarded Castro family, but to highlight the gap between the daily life of a Castro and an average Cuban citizen.
