fallacy masquerading as a warranted inference

Explanation: The argument is an example of a fallacy masquerading as a warranted inference. Warranted arguments pass the test of logical strength and they describe an inference or argument such that the truth of the premises justifies or strongly supports confidently accepting the conclusion as very probably true, but not necessarily true. For every argument where the assumption that all the premises are true makes it very probable or highly likely that the conclusion is true (i.e. if the premises justify or strongly

support confidently taking the conclusion to be true),

then such argument or inference is evaluated as warranted.
