Karkaroof was showing Snape (pages 531-532).If Sirius was battling 
Death Eaters, surely he or his other fighters would have noticed the 
mark on the Death Eaters' arms, OR when the Death Eaters were put in 
Azkaban, the authorities must write down more than name and 
address.  Any place of incarceration writes down all body making for 
possible identification. V was not vaporized when some of his 
followers were arrested.  Didn't anyone notice the arm markings?

Juli:
It doesn't seem a very known fact that Voldemort marked his DE with 
the dark mark, remember in GoF when they are trying to convice Fudge 
that LV is back? Snape rolls up his sleeve and says "look, it's the 
dark mark, LV used to mark all his DE with it, when he touched 
someone's mark we had to disappear from wherever we were and go to 
him, Mine has been getting lighter this whole year, so has 
Karkarov's, that's why he left today" (quoting from memory). If the 
MoM does NOT know about the dark mark, why should Sirius know about 
it?
