These rumours, though, could also be a trap for Sony, to make it follow suit, increasing PS4's costs.

Hum... no. Sony wouldn't react to that kind of thing this close to launch. And thinking they could is naive at best.

It depends on when the rumour started... And if the rumour was started not by MS, but by some of its fans, it could be a naive attempt to set a trap.

A naive attempt to set a trap? By the fans? Are you serious?

Well, making the imagination run quite wildly.    But if such rumour started from just one person and then spread on the net, then almost every hypothesis could be not totally unlikely.
Always supposing the rumour is false, another hypothesis, maybe less unlikely, could be fans trying to force MS to increase RAM.
In both cases, and also in almost all the other possible hypotheses, whatever the reason for which the rumour started, each one helping spreading it could have a different reason.
