Alexander Mitroshin — biography

Alexandra Mitroshina was born on June 27, 1994 in Petrozavodsk. The girl's family soon moved to Moscow, and the future blogger's childhood years were mostly spent in the capital.

After graduating from high school, the girl enrolled in the Faculty of Journalism at Moscow State University (MSU), and then at the Higher School of Economics, majoring in Media Production. She gained her first media experience working for radio Moscow FM.

By Mitroshina's own admission, she invested almost all of her salary in her Instagram blog (the social network belongs to the Meta organization, which is recognized as extremist and banned in the Russian Federation). The girl created a social network page back in 2011, the year the online platform was founded, but for a long time she failed to develop an account and gain a large number of subscribers.

Since 2013, Mitroshina has made blog promotion her main goal: she has been testing various page management strategies, watching popular people on the social network, and investing in promotion. The attempts bore fruit, the audience of Alexandra's page expanded, and the girl shared her successes in the development of the blog with subscribers.

This is how the Instalogia project appeared, in which Mitroshina collected her observations and experience on current strategies on the social network in the form of courses. The blogger published a book about the promotion of personal pages on the social network, gave consultations and starred in the main role in the film "Gone to be a blogger."

In addition to helping novice bloggers, Mitroshina also led her own fitness projects, engaged in public activities, in particular, she took an active part in the movement against domestic violence. The audience of her blog reached more than 4.2 million subscribers, and the cost of the courses was up to 500 thousand rubles.

Alexander Mitroshin — the criminal case of 2023

According to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, income from the sale of Mitroshina's courses in 2023 exceeded the limit for the simplified taxation system used by the girl. At the same time, she did not switch to the general system, thereby avoiding paying VAT and personal income tax. In an attempt to circumvent tax legislation, the blogger allegedly organized the transfer of money from her business account directly to affiliated and controlled sole proprietors.

Thus, in the period from October 2020 to May 2022, Mitroshina's tax evasion exceeded 120 million rubles. A criminal case was initiated under the article "Tax evasion".

At the same time, Mitroshina herself had previously admitted that she had problems with the tax. The girl wrote that the court charged her with 200 million in debt, but assured her that she had never hidden her income and would resolve the situation in accordance with the law.
