You can look to see if their hands are up and they're looking at the ball. I realize that we're opening ourselves up for questions by looking for the intent of the player, but that's part of the game in other areas as well. Kind of an official's judgement to me.
The problem with this will come when the person with possession of the ball sees what's happening, and fakes passing the ball to her teammate (to make it look good) just as you blow the whistle. Now you've got some explaining to do!
