Companies do use viral marketing agencies, like Microsoft and the Bees thing, and Sony with this "All I want for Christmas is a PSP" nonsense: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0G0LlXv-nyI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwdhg_whoKw
But, as for hiring people to post on forums, go ahead and post any evidence that is true...

No I don't have any undisputible evidence but they have been known to work with Arbuthnot Entertainment Group witch had that NVIDIA scandel a while back.
"AEG would hire employees to create 'personas' in various gaming communities, slowly building up the trust of other members by frequent posting unrelated to Nvidia, to later cash in that trust with message board postings talking up the positive qualities of Nvidia's products."
And then there's the famous FUD campaings against linux and apple.
So it's not so unlikely is it?
