When a person moves to another company for more pay, if the company still needs people, one of the first things they ask is “Who do you know at your old job who you might like to lure here?”

I'm a hiring manager and I've gotten some really good employees that way. I recruit one, treat him or her well, and typically others from the old company follow. Now I can pick and choose the best performers from the competing company.

I suppose that's technically poaching but I consider those employees fair game, so long as they didn't sign an anti-compete clause.
