For ads posted by recruiters on job boards, it's surprising how often you can Google a key phrase from the ad and figure out what company it is. I'm not sure if this works with mails from recruiters - I've never gotten those at a time when I was looking to move on from my current job. It reminds me of how you can catch student plagiarism by Googling the sentence that sounds like they didn't write it.

- codegeek 12y agoThis is a great point and I have successfully used it myself. It is really that simple sometimes. In fact, some recruiters will leave out the name of the company but will leave other unique piece of information that only applies to that company lol.
