In this article
Ash Mufareh (Ashraf Mufareh) of Orlando, Florida, is the founder and CEO of ONPASSIVE, a company that promoted artificial-intelligence software through a multi-level marketing model. No reputable outlet has published a net worth figure for him. The most concrete financial facts about him come from a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission case: in August 2025 a federal court entered a final judgment ordering ONPASSIVE to pay about $26.2 million in disgorgement plus interest and a $4 million penalty, and ordering Mufareh personally to pay a $4 million civil penalty, FX News Group reported.
What is Ash Mufareh's Net Worth?
There is no reliable published estimate. The old version of this page said $9 million, but it had no source, and we have removed it.
Any estimate would also have to account for the SEC judgment. The regulator alleged that ONPASSIVE raised more than $108 million from over 800,000 investors between 2018 and 2023. The final judgment ordered the company to hand over $26,220,364 in disgorgement and $1,218,528.40 in prejudgment interest and to pay a $4 million penalty, and ordered Mufareh to pay a separate $4 million penalty. Mufareh and ONPASSIVE consented to the judgment without admitting or denying the allegations. How much of the money has been paid, and what he holds today, has not been reported.

Ash Mufareh Yearly Earning, Monthly Income, and Salary?
His salary and income have never been disclosed. ONPASSIVE is a private company. The yearly, monthly and daily income figures that used to appear here had no source and have been removed.
The SEC's complaint, as described by The Register, alleged that investor money was moved to accounts controlled by Mufareh and his wife and used for personal spending, and that a considerable portion went into crypto assets under their personal control. Those were allegations; they were resolved by the consent judgment rather than a trial.

What ONPASSIVE Is
ONPASSIVE, which also operated under the names GoFounders and OFounders, said it was building a suite of AI-powered online business applications that would work together as an ecosystem. Starting in 2018 it sold "Founder" positions for $97, which the SEC said gave buyers a locked-in place in a multi-level marketing structure before any product launched. Early buyers were told they would earn passive income from the monthly subscription fees paid by people who joined after them.
According to the SEC, ONPASSIVE stopped accepting Founder sign-ups on June 22, 2022, after selling more than 1.12 million positions. As of June 2023 it had not commercially launched any product for a fee or paid a single commission to investors, the SEC alleged.
The SEC Case: Timeline
| Date | Event |
|---|---|
| 2018 | ONPASSIVE begins selling Founder positions |
| Jun 22, 2022 | Founder registrations close, per the SEC |
| Aug 2023 | SEC sues Mufareh and ONPASSIVE in federal court, alleging a fraudulent, unregistered offering structured as a pyramid scheme |
| Aug 2023 | Their lawyer at Latham & Watkins says they deny the allegations and had cooperated with the investigation |
| Nov 6, 2023 | SEC files an amended complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida |
| Aug 2025 | Final judgment by consent: injunctions, an eight-year officer-and-director bar for Mufareh, a $4M penalty for him, and $26.2M disgorgement, $1.2M interest and a $4M penalty for ONPASSIVE; SEC drops claims against his wife |
The eight-year bar means Mufareh cannot serve as an officer or director of a public company during that period. The judgment also permanently prohibits him and ONPASSIVE from violating the registration and anti-fraud provisions of federal securities law.
Early Life & Family
Little about his background has been reported by reliable outlets. The SEC case identified him as a resident of Orlando and named his wife, Asmahan Mufareh, as a relief defendant, a person alleged to have received investor funds without being accused of wrongdoing. The SEC voluntarily dismissed its claims against her when the case ended in 2025.
The old page's paragraphs about his childhood and family had no source and were removed.
Education
An earlier version of this page said he earned a computer science degree from UC Berkeley. We found no reliable source confirming that, so it is no longer stated. His education has not been reported by the outlets that covered the SEC case.
Professional Life
Mufareh is best known as the founder and chief executive of ONPASSIVE, which described itself as an AI technology company. The SEC alleged that the company also set up websites with names resembling existing review sites and posted positive reviews presented as independent, and that it made false statements about when products would launch and how much investors could earn. These claims were resolved through the consent judgment.
