- its a scam but just so you know for future reference pepsi is an american company so when they say they will pay you in pounds that aint dollars pepsi would never have some podunk in europe pay out winnings for them and last but not least all american corporations that have prizes always have a disclaimer that says something to the tune of this "only valid in the united states void where prohibited' so when you get emails like that dont fall for it if you didnt sign up for a lotto or a reward or a prize they didnt just randomly find you you have to put in for all those types of things

Please Note - MONIZK, PEPSI, although an American company does in fact licence its' products internationally. Just because a prize is being paid in Euro / Pounds or whatever, does not in itself say it is a fraud.
