What is negative SEO?

I have heard 2 terms Negative SEO and Reverse SEO? But i am confused in between these 2 terms, as the name suggest “Negative SEO”, it is clear that it is not a Good Practice, so why it is referred so many times, is there any influence of it?

@jasomMar 27.2014 — Negative SEO is the practice of trying to get your competitors' sites penalised by search engines, such as setting up fake link farms around them.

As well as being an appalling practice from a moral/ethical point of view, and one that could come back to bite you in the future, I have not seen any evidence of how effective this is at disrupting your competitors' position in the search results.
