Logical fallacy.
Argument from ignorance (Latin: argumentum ad ignorantiam), also known as appeal to ignorance (in which ignorance stands for "lack of evidence to the contrary"), is a fallacy in informal logic. It asserts that a proposition is true because it has not yet been proven false (or vice versa).
I don't have to prove it because he never proved he received the PMs in the first place.

No, it must not. That's the logical fallacy. You can choose to feign ignorance, but that's your prerogative.
Although in your case, I think it's more actual ignorance and less feigning.

You can't even identify the proper fallacy you are claiming I commit.
Argument from fallacy – assumes that if an argument for some conclusion is fallacious, then the conclusion is false
^^This is the one you were looking for. You had it backwards Ignorance is assuming something is true because you can't prove it false. I.E. God, Unicorns etc.
Prove it doesn't mean you claim is wrong..Just means you should prove it if you want others to share your opinion.
Should I put some line about victory or something here?
