Very true.
But she was apparently there when the conversation happened, so it's up the her to believe in the authenticity of it or not, and the meaning of the words addressed to her.

I like to think it is genuine, with her berating the ransoming and not accepting these petty gifts; much like Jesus was cross with the Pharisees for all their unsavory business in the name of God, completely ignoring the actual teachings.
