In 2006, Joya Williams, an employee at Coca Cola headquarters, had the idea of stealing a vial with a new top secret product along with some documents with the intention of selling everything to the main competitor, Pepsi
The woman's request for 1.5 million dollars promised in exchange information on new products and packaging that no one knew except the top 5 representatives of the company.
However, Pepsi itself reported the woman to Coca Cola, which she called the FBI. After starting the investigation, an undercover agent pretended to be a Pepsi manager and during the meeting with Joya Williams pretended to accept the offer, arresting the spy red-handed. The woman was sentenced to 10 years in prison.
Pepsi spokesman Dave DeCecco said: "Competition can be fierce, but it must always be fair and legal."
