One of my brothers and I had it done. We knew it was legitimate because even though we only provided them with code names, they gave us the names of people we're related to (people we know) who had had the test and knew what relation they were! And they also linked us to more distant relatives.

It confirmed that our ancestry was mainly from the UK (especially Ireland) with some recent African-American and Native American. We will be unlikely to be able to trace the last 2 but we do have contact information for 4th to 6th cousins who are full black and NA. I bet they would pass out if we showed up at the door and told them we were cousins!
