They know his backstory up to a certain point. They clearly weren't aware that he is now a pirate. Also, this flashback is not that far into the past.
Edit:
Response to below: The hand thing isn't even something I noticed until StillAlive posted that link. Seriously, nobody else sees it? The hat, the nose, the open collar?

The only similarity there (that he is clearly using to fuck with you guys and create another stupid theory) is the hand movements.Originally Posted by Splash!
Okay, I'll admit there is a difference in the way the 2 characters are drawn but take a look at this:
Also, you cant see the ears very clearly but i can make out something that looks like an earring.
this new guy:
- has too big of a chin
- why would he shave?
- unless Oda reveals it later on, and he actually was a WB member why would he choose to leave with blackbeard when he made his own crew?
Ah...here's something I just now noticed...

The Lafitte impersonator is on the ship in the second frame from the top right as WB does his quake move against the WG.

Aha, good eye. I guess that isn't Lafitte but a division captain. Still, I don't know why but they do look similar in those two pictures.
i love one piece! aside from the great plot there's a where's waldo factor in it
Nice catch. Also, on a related note. Is it me or does that look like a mini Moria next to him? I swear it looks like Gecko Moria.
I see the similarity (and agreed with you at first), but the new guy actually looks like a cross between Bon~chan and Lafitte (which means nothing, plotwise, unless the new guy was born on Kamakura Island...)

"After all, I am strangely colored."
I was thinking he looked like Pickles of the foxy pirates.

Nah, totally a mini moria. If anything, the moria post the shadow buffet he gave himself to fight luffy. A little on the hefty side if you know what I mean.
