I actually had a similar experience with Google Ads: A site was flagged for malware, no explanation what they had found, once I got answers out of them, days later, I found where a non-resolving but probably former malicious link ended up on the site. I purged it, cleared the CDN, asked for review, and was quickly rejected because I allegedly hadn't removed the malicious link.

I asked them to show me where they still found it... and they then realized it was indeed gone, rejecting my re-review was incorrect, and reenabled the account.

The only positive on my end, was that since it was the Ads team, where Google's money is, I got human email responses.
