The hate mail is weird. I made a similar offer two years ago (http://blog.fairsoftware.net/2009/05/13/being-a-new-cs-grad-...), received a lot of resumes, and I can't remember receiving even one complaint.

I think the key difference is that I am a Tech Recruiter. Your own background is a lot more credible and there is no reason why anyone would assume that you would take advantage of the info you received.
