I did find some information at http://cr.pepsi.com/usen/pepsiusen.cfm?time=8923183 about this scam.

While this is a great warning, it is very hard to find . . . and I was looking for something . . . imagine the person that does not know to look and dig for this information. They could think that this is real. I would encourage Pepsi to place this warning in a more noticeable location, or to even do a press release on this topic so that the media would pick it up and get the word out to even more people It would be a great way for Pepsi to show that they are looking out for the good of the American public
