At Varsity level, I have nuttin.

At middle school or jr. High, I would I would discreetly point out the action to the player and let them know it could be judged as a shot attempt.

At any level it is nothing.

Why did the other referee feel the need to inform you of her motion? Was he not sure? And one more question, was this motion coincidental to lane violations?

(I am with you DJ and Robo. Sounds like a fake attempt to me.)

The other referee had seen the motion in a pre-season scrimmage and informed the player and coach the motion "could possibly" be considered a faked try by an official.

I was taken a little off guard, but have learned over the years to bite the Fox and not blow anything I can't explain.

Since she didn't do it on the second free throw, I would say it wasn't part of her normal routine.
