Answer:

An illusory correlation

Explanation:

The term illusory correlation refers to an incorrect assumption that there is a high correlation between two unusual or rare items that do not interfere with each other's functioning.

The jacket has no connection whatsoever if there is a $ 50 bill on the sidewalk, but Jonas believes it does.
