Faulty causality, also known as a false cause fallacy, occurs when a cause-and-effect relationship is incorrectly assumed. Some examples include believing that wearing a lucky charm will make you succeed, or thinking that because two events happen together, one must cause the other. It's important to critically evaluate connections between events to avoid falling into the trap of faulty causality.
