The people who were speaking before are the real ones.

Everyone else is speaking as a result of ole girl now being part of XYZ. Whether they are happy or suckin up it is still a direct result of her being in XYZ.

She just needs to keep all of her NEW found friends at an arms distance until she can decipher who is who. My advice would be to only vouch, write letters for those folks she knew before she crossed.

Real is truly a matter of perception. So she has to ultimately decide who is being real with her.
