PoA, Am. 368-
"You haven't been hiding from me for twelve years," said 
Black.  "You've been hiding from Voldemort's old supporters. I heard 
things in Azkaban, Peter. . . They all think you're dead, or you'd 
have to answer to them. . . . I've heard them screaming all sorts of 
things in their sleep. Sounds like they think the double-crosser 
double-crossed them. Voldemort met his downfall there.  And not all 
Voldemort's supporters ended up in Azkaban, did they? There are still 
plenty out here, biding their time, pretending they've seen the error 
of their ways. . . . If they ever got wind that you were still alive, 
Peter --" 

Okay, this is the canon that makes me think that the DEs knew Peter 
was the one who "double-crossed" and gave the information to 
Voldemort, even though the rest of the wizarding world thought it was 
Sirius.  It is possible I am reading it wrong or reading too much into 
it.  At any rate, it sounds like Voldemort's supporters are mad at 
Peter for some reason.  But if everyone thinks this is nothing and I 
am off base, I will gladly drop it. :)
