Job offer, tell recruiter??

Would you tell a recruiter (the one from a job which you really want) that you received an offer from another company?In my case it is true, but actually I dont wanna take the offer anyway.So would it be advisable to tell him or would that rather have a negative impact on the process?

For my last job, I let my recruiters know that I was interviewing at multiple places, was at X point in the process, and updated them accordingly. Their job is to help you out and nudge the process along. When I had a 3rd round at Firm X, it pushed Firm Y to move a little faster and negotiate a little higher for my comp package to bring me on. Their job is to advocate for you, so yes, tell the recruiter you got an offer somewhere.
