The spammer would need to be very old or very young, very uncommon, and/or very uneducated to not understand some written English. It's certainly possible that the spammer doesn't speak any measure of English, but it's unlikely.The rules aren't very helpful, since the spammer speaks Chinese.Notice the language used for multiple topics shown on the active topics list.

Yes, the Chinese use Roman characters too.
They have PinYin which is the Romanization of their words. It makes it easier for foreigners to learn Chinese and also for kids to learn Chinese phonetically.I can attest to that. I have learned but a handful of hanzi, but I can speak "get by" Mandarin and communicate in writing using pinyin, but for business meetings I need a translator.It makes it easier for foreigners to learn Chinese
Chinese people use pinyin for texting and other typing applications. On, say, a phone, they type in pinyin and the phone presents the hanzi options that apply, much like when you or I type text messages and the phone displays a selection of words matching what we've thus far typed, with the most commonly used one being the first on the list. So long as the first "listed word" is the one the user wants, that's what the phone inserts, if it's not, the user can select other options.
I didn't know that's how it worked until I bought a Chinese copy of an iPhone and used it to text associates and acquaintances in China. They responded to me in hanzi, which the phone doesn't convert back to pinyin. They were surprised that I'd so quickly picked up Mandarin, which, of course, I had not. I had to ask them to either text back in pinyin or English. LOL
Aside:
In case one is curious, the Chinese copies of western tech products/devices work quite well and are built well given the price one pays, which is dramatically less expensive than are the "real things." At the time in the PRC, an authentic iPhone cost the "world" price plus China's tariff on it, whereas an effective enough imitation that, though not as fully featured, ably handled the basics (phone, text, email, web surfing, picture taking, and video recording and playback) cost between $25 and $100, depending on one's haggling skills.
My being a white guy who's obviously not a Chinese citizen had a materially limiting impact on my haggling results because they knew damn well that people like me are, compared to Chinese, "made of money" had the means to pay. I was able to get the price down to ~$60, but my associates there all told me I paid too much. I learned my lesson. From that point on, I only went shopping with someone who is Chinese and let them do the haggling and execute the transaction.
Off-Topic:You don't need a Chinese phone, you can just add languages to your phone, at least I've done that. I don't write much in Chinese on my phone, mostly just practicing on paper. But sometimes it's easier that way, you type it in and something hopefully pops up that you recognize.
A spammer, Kat appears to have taken care of them. They’ve been hitting for a few nights now when no one is looking.I'm not sure if you're genuinely implying something about Kat's character that has escaped me, but I know that your hyperbolic description of Kat's comportment has not been by me observed.Its best not to piss off Kat.. she makes things and people dissapear
