For the past couple of months we have noticed that the number of websites blacklisted with Deceptive Content warnings has increased for no apparent reason. The sites were clean, and there was no external resources loading on the website.

There seems to be another similar factor among the affected websites.

Most appear to be recently registered domains, and as such, they did not have time to build a reputation and authority with Google. This could be another factor that Google takes into account when assessing the danger level of a particular website.

Some websites were not even a month old, had no malware, and were blacklisted until we enabled SSL.
