HELP! When using other offers to negotiate salary, does the employer usually ask for proof of your other offers that you mentioned? I’m super new to this so I’m just curious.

Also, if they do ask to show proof, is that a red flag? Or is that pretty common? If so, I imagine I’d just block out the company name and stuff like that?

Typically not, but I have heard of such instances. If they don't match just be prepared to take the other offer.

Just be careful, one of my old co-workers told them the company that gave her the offer and they called that company to ask questions

Yes it is

They can sometimes ask for documentation. If you decide to provide proof, redact all info that can identify the company.

I have been asked for proof of the competing offer. But - totally agree you should redact the identifiable information.

You don’t have to show it if you don’t want to. You can position the negotiation as this is what it will take for me to stay. Therefore, you technically not lying if you ask for more than the competing offer.

Has anyone who's worked in HR, Finance, or another role with visibility to compensation information been able to use that as leverage for salary negotiations?

To put it bluntly, I know certain people with less experience and a lower performance rating are getting paid more than me due to my role working with payroll data. I suspect this was due to the fact that I did not counter offer when I accepted this role, which was a few months ago, and now I regret it.
