If that was the reason then why are they telling the positions they're hiring for?

The only thing that they're not telling is their identity, which should be fairly easy for a curious competitor to google - or to social engineer by e-mail.

I've yet to see a job posting that did not have that bit of information in it. Sort of helps when you let your prospective hires know what you're looking for ;)
