The false positive rate was 66% for "automatic scan" and 100% (!) for "deep scan".

In other words, you can get these numbers if your deep scan filter is isSuspicious() { return true; }.

I think there might be a confusion here? The 100% seems like the true positive rate (correct detection), not the false positive rate?
