Background: during my first semester of freshman year, I attended a large Midwestern university. I transferred to a smaller, private university in January. I went through recruitment at my current school and joined a chapter that I love.

I just got a PNM resume from one of my suitemates at the first school that is very embellished. She went through recruitment last year and completed the first two rounds, but dropped when she got three houses that she considered to be "bottom tier" for the third round, when PNMs could attend up to six parties. Throughout the semester, a girl who had a decent record in high school slacked off and skipped class enough to be put on academic probation by the university. Ironically, the sorority of which I am a member dropped her on the first day last year (many members in that chapter are from her hometown. She had the grades, but her social reputation was...fairly bad.) She badmouthed that chapter (again, I am now a happy member of that same sorority!) as well as all of the others that had dropped her during recruitment whenever someone mentioned greek life. What's more, she was a pretty disrespectful roommate - always blaming other suitemates for things, playing loud music, demanding that people get out of the shower...etc.
So, last week, I check my email, and there is a virtual "packet". She did not ask me to write a rec letter; instead, she simply emailed me her resume and other files. When I opened it, I noticed glaring errors. Her high school GPA had been notably inflated, among other smaller things.
I am now pondering what to do. Should I send in nothing, and leave her to her own devices during recruitment? Should I send in a letter of non-recommendation? If anyone has any sort of advice on this, I would truly appreciate hearing it.
