Ghostcard

The act of subtly revealing your professional certification, insider status, or high-level expertise in a conversation (usually online), without explicitly stating it—often through technical identifiers, insider codes, or precise knowledge that only a certified pro would know.
“Dude came into the AppleCare thread and ghostcarded with a technician ID. Everyone arguing went silent.”
“She didn’t say she was Tier 3, but that firmware rollback command? Total ghostcard.”
