Fraud Alert: We recently have learned of some mail fraud scams falsely using the PepsiCo name and claiming that individuals have won large sums of money. These letters may include bogus checks, supposedly the first installment of a grand prize.
The fraudulent letters are being mailed to the homes of some consumers, and we want to alert the public that PepsiCo did not initiate and does not endorse this activity. We have never used these types of consumer incentives, nor would we ever ask our customers to divulge any private information.
If you receive a mailing of this nature, we ask you to simply disregard it. Please do not respond to the letters or attempt to cash these checks.
Thank you for giving us the chance to share this information, and we encourage you to share this information with anyone who you think may have received these mailings so that they are not victimized by this fraud.
We regret any inconvenience or concern.
