The statement "I think the moon landing was a hoax. Do you know of any proof it wasn't?" is an example of an appeal to ignorance fallacy. This fallacy occurs when it is argued that a proposition is true simply because it has not been proven false or that a proposition is false because it has not been proven true. In this case, the speaker is suggesting that the moon landing being a hoax might be true because the listener may not have proof that it wasn't a hoax.
