Legal Question (Canada): Evidence Required for Romance-Based Fraud Allegations

Under Canadian law, if someone alleges they were targeted through a romantic or intimate relationship as part of a fraud, scam, or coercive recruitment scheme, is it necessary to have intimate photos or videos to prove the case?
If the accused denies that the relationship existed, what types of evidence would investigators typically rely on? For example:
Text messages or emails
Call logs
Photos (non-intimate)
Security camera footage
Witness statements
Financial records or money transfers
Social media messages
Other documentary evidence
I’m asking because I want to understand what evidence is generally considered sufficient in Canada when investigating allegations of fraud, deception, coercion, or financial exploitation. I’m looking for legal information or insights from anyone familiar with the Canadian legal process.

Possible romance scam / MLM recruitment – looking for legal advice (Canada)

Has anyone in Canada experienced an MLM insurance agent (who was also their landlord) using emotional manipulation, lies and then intimate relationship as a way to recruit them into the business through deception, pressure, or coercion?
In this situation, I believe the landlord, who owns several rental properties, conduct background checks on prospective tenants, select certain tenants as targets, and contact them within days of moving in to recruit them into an insurance business. I also believe there were misleading statements about the business, along with attempts at financial exploitation and possible insurance-related fraud.
If I file a complaint and the person denies that any romantic or intimate relationship occurred, what types of evidence would investigators, regulators, or the company typically consider? For example:
Text messages or emails
Call logs
Photos or videos
Security camera footage
Witness statements
Financial records or other documentation
I’m looking for legal information or to hear from anyone in Canada who has experienced something similar. Thank you.
