Salem is human so a faked death isn't something she magically see through and we don't have any evidence than any old Grimm can communicate with Salem in any way. Not to mention, it is entirely possible the relevant Grimm were killed before they could theoretically relay Summer's non-death. This does not address the certainty Summer would have that continuing to associate with her family would more directly put them at risk then pretending she is dead. Tell me this then; how does Salem know Summer died without interacting with humans?

Faking death isn't as simple as jumping off a cliff, you need to find a way for that information to reach the one you need to think you are dead, that is what requires human agents, Grimm aren't gonna find bloody clothing and think "we got it!" they care about the kill, hunt for emotions, eat the body. thus, we require a human agent to read the news of her death or witness the event, Salem's not going to do that herself most of the time, and tracking an SEW with Grimm like seers isn't a great plan either.
