I will repeat that the Y-DNA12 test description has information that can be misleading. Matches between P312 and U106 people at 12 markers shows that it shouldn't be recommended for confirming a genealogical relationship with another male. Two people with the same surname can be positive for two completely different SNPs and they can still match at 12 markers.
Just so the current Y-DNA12 description, that I posted earlier, can be seen in the same post here it is again -
12-marker matches are highly likely to be related within the past 29 generations.
Provides genealogically relevant matches and recent ancestral origins.
Recommended for confirming a genealogical relationship with another male.
Provides your Haplogroup: deep ancestral origin of the paternal line.
