A wire transfer was done from Nigeria, to my bank and now they want a fee of $25,000 to open an off shore account to another bank? Can they charge me if I don't pay the fee?

Since many of the bank fraud scams originate in Nigeria, you probably are already a victim. Close any of your bank accounts that may have been involved and open new ones. After that, contact the FBI.
