What's the penalty for the improper use of quotation marks?

I email AY about a conversation I had. Normally when I detail a conversation, I do it in dialogue form, with quotation marks. In this particular email, I ended with, "Errr... don't let the quotation marks fool you. I am only paraphrasing what I think I remember."

AY writes back: "I know about your quotes."

Me: "You know about my quotes like you know I always paraphrase but I like to mislead with QUOTATION MARKS?"

Busted!
