Currently looking for a new job and I think my past employer is badmouthing me. I asked them for a reference and they said they would give me a good one, but I'm getting rejections following interviews at companies that contact them, therefore I'm 90% sure they're lying to me and saying bad shit about me.
Question is, if I get a friend to call them and pretend to be an interviewer and confirms that they badmouth me, can I sue this former employer? Will this hold up in court?

well were you a bad employee when you worked with them? that would explain a lot

I've been in this position before, it's better to use a coworker or a manager from a different department who you might know. Out of college when I had no real references I used my manager from my part time retail job and he fucked me over on two jobs before I got the hint.

If they are lying, then yes.

I've always heard companies won't give referrals because of fear of defamation lawsuits they will just confirm your employment.
Ask a person for a referral

Some larger corporations have policies like this but its not something that all companies do.

It's libel.
Call the companies you interviewed with and ask for reasons OP. They can't unjustifiably cockblock you.
