Wild Card's description:
Criminals sell fake DNA on internet. Politicians (or other famous/rich persons) are blackmailed by abusing their (fake) DNA "fingerprints".

In another scenario, insurance company is buying clients DNA (to calculate premiums). Weapons race starts between DNA fakers and forensics.
