Which kind of flawed reasoning is this?

The phrase "When you give them an inch, they will take a mile" is an example of the slippery slope fallacy. This reasoning suggests that a small concession will inevitably lead to a significant negative outcome, implying that one small action will lead to a chain of events that results in a major consequence, without providing evidence for such a progression.
