If I recall correctly, the hobbits around Crickhollow had never seen Frodo before thus wouldn't be aware that Fatty was not Frodo because they did not know how Frodo looked like. Since they would never get all up close and personal, they wouldn't realize it was only Fatty impersonating him. I'm sure if they saw a hobbit in different clothes they would have thought him to be Frodo.

I had always assumed that Fatty would take the disguise off when talking to visiting hobbits.
