If they simply wish to mail you a check, by all means let them. But if they need you to send in some money first, for a processing fee, taxes, admin charges, etc...then yes, it's a scam.

Why has PIB asked for a 20 dollar transfer fee is this a scam?

If you are in any way, for any reason asked for money, then yes, it's a scam. Likewise if they need your credit card to "confirm" your identity. If you've won, they can mail you a check. There are no "fees" or "taxes" owed in advance, not if it's legitimate. PIB has numerous reports from people who have been scammed by them. There is no prize, they are trying to steal $20 from you.
