Why do the Black Hebrew Israelites only get their DNA tested at this one place?

I talked with someone of the Black Hebrew Israelites, and basically they don't believe DNA testing is real unless it's from this one place (that proves that their DNA is Israelite) What kind of place is it where they get tested? Is it a hoax?

Update:

The place for their DNA testing is called 23 and you.

Update 2:

23 and me*

    It is self-evident that the place is a hoax.

    How can the DNA be identified as "Israelite" unless previously known / agreed-upon "Israelite" DNA is used.

    However -- a major premise of the "Black Hebrew Israelites" teaching is that the communities that are tracked by normative world history as being actual "Israelite" communities are not Israelite.

    So -- what are they comparing on??

    You would have to tell us the name of the place, so that we could research it. Without that, there's no way to answer your question.
