Old job readvertised

I don't know what to make of this, A job appeared on the Job Centre yesterday, same area as the place I used to work, job description same as what I used to do, I am pretty sure its my old employer as no one else around there does that kind of work but all the details are conveniently withheld. What should I do? I also thought that after redundancies you can't rehire for 3 months is it? Why hide all the details?

    Apply for it using fake details not including the last employer on your CV and see if it is or not. If it isn't then reapply using your real details.

    There is no such rule.

    How long is it since you were made redundant?

    Solved the problem, the Job Centre has it listed in the wrong area of town, which wouldn't really surprise me to be honest, but at least I can apply for it now :)

    I thought they could replace you right away
