False Cause

Explanation:

False Cause is a fallacy that is created when we try to establish that one thing causes the other without any valid evidence. This assumption which is false is made when we make conclusion that there is a causal connection between two variables which most likely isn't even there.

This fallacy may not always mean that our conclusion is inaccurate but that we lack sufficient evidence to actual back up our statement or comparison.
