The folks over at NGOHQ.com have found out that AMD hired viral marketing firm Design Reactor to do some viral marketing for them. So what did they do? Well they posted in a number of computer hardware forums “positive” comments about AMD and their products. How did they get caught? All of the different users had the same IP address….talk about dumb.
“”When we were sure that these guys were just spamming, we started to check their IPs and we have been shocked to find out that the IP is leading to a company called “Design Reactor”. According to this company’s Website, they are dealing with advertisement, digital communications, and more. According to their Website, their main client is AMD.”
