Surprisingly enough my grandmother have some Full Ashkenazi matches (very few though) but she doesn't match any full Eastern Sephardic.

you have more Lithuanian, Russian, Ukrainian than Peterski... and the same number of Polish... wtf

[Vojnik]

Very strange. I noticed i had alot of Polish.

[Vojnik]

I'm quite Slav for an average Macedonian. But i don't look it.

[Lemgrant]

Very strange. I noticed i had alot of Polish.

add to that 49% of your DNA relatives score AJ while you 0%, I mean what are the odds for something like that?
Your results look exceptional.

[Pubiczar]

I'm quite Slav for an average Macedonian. But i don't look it.

Your inflated numbers for Poland/Ukraine/Russia/Lithuania come from the Ashkenazi Jews who share a lot of IBD between themselves so even when you share a less significant ancestry with them, you still get a lot of Ashkenazi matches as is in your case.

You might want to investigate where does it come from but I suspect that a Balkan woman might have married in a Jew family...

IBD? Whats that?

I get what you mean with the Ashkenazi. But i Get 0 Ashkenazi in my ancestry composition, so i can't see how i'd be connected to the Poles via the Ashkenazi proxy. More likely via the Eastern Euro proxy.

I remember you posted the ancestry composition of your matches once and the first ethnicity your matches scored was Ashkenazi!!

IBD (identical by descent), as opposed to IBS, means that the matching segment(s) you have with a DNA relative are from a common ancestor instead of recombination.

Yes yes. This one.

But then i match it to this and i'm like wtf.

It means that you don't have Ashkenazi blood but some distant or recent relative of yours, probably a Macedonian from around your ancestral lands, married into a Jewish family, hence the inflated numbers.

Yes, now i get it. I have Jewish family. That's cool.

[Figaro]

I’d participate, but 94% of my relatives are Ashkenazim, so it’s a moot point.

It's not the same. You have posted the locations of your dna matches (where they live now). "Ancestor Birthplaces" on 23andme is specified by the customers themselves, similar to family tree on myheritage.
