When a site is a scam it never run more than one year normally ?
Normally yeah, but any site can go down if he get hacked/robbed..
[They] are jealous of the success of ore-mine ?
Competitors are jealous but the rest are afraid to loose their money again. Some people when they saw the ore-mine site think it is a cheap one so it will likely turn scam but I am pretty sure that if the admin will tell them that he will make a new site, everyone will start panicking

My advice: Invest what you are afford to loose else simply use the free option and be patient
