Trying to get people to give honest feedback abut a recruiter on an anonymous board is probably going to be hard. If they give negative feedback, the recruiter might lose business and have a legal case against the person leaving the criticism. If they give positive feedback, and the person is not to be trusted, you get screwed.

I can say this: I have worked with a recruiter named Gina--I don't know if it's the same person who contacted you. E-mail me at andrew1729@hotmail.com and leave me specifics about who your Gina is. If it's the same person, I'll give you what feedback I can. Would that help?

Legal action? As a result of posting to an anonymous bulletin board?

Even if this wasn't anonymous, there is no case for a law suit for somebody expressing their opinon on the internet.

Both Prodigy and Delphi have been sued (by different people) in federal court because people posted opinions that caused loss of business. The Prodigy case is Stratton-Oakmont v. Prodigy, where Prodigy was found liable for damages incurred by Stratton-Oakmont for comments published through Prodigy. (I don't remember the plaintiff in the Delphi case, but the situation was very similar.)

If Gina can attribute losing clients to comments posted here, she may be able to sue phpBB, the poster, and possibly Traci and company for defamation and tortious interference of contract. (Suing Traci et al. might be a stretch, but when has that ever stopped a lawyer from filing?)
