Shangcai County (traditional Chinese: 上蔡縣; simplified Chinese: 上蔡县; pinyin: Shàngcài Xiàn) is a county in the south of Henan province, China. It is under the administration of the prefecture-level city of Zhumadian.
In 2016 over 100 people were charged for a phone scam involving impersonating military personnel, with 'almost all of them holding a hukou from Shangcai County in Henan Province.' This led to increased anti-Henan sentiment.[1][2]
