Hiring, but it's a secret?

[arroxaneullman -at- aol -dot- com]

An automated search spit out a job on Monster.com, but the company is "anonymous." I just have to wonder why a company would hide that they are hiring, but put a job on Monster. Is this a scam--like where a recruiter is only pretending they have a job but is really resume fishing? Or are they too ashamed to admit they need *gasp* a writer/editor? Who would want to work at a place like that? Maybe I'm just reading too much into it, but it does seem fishy.

Anyone got any insight on the devious minds behind anonymous job postings?
