Unfortunately, the latex adhesive used to laminate the backing on the carpet seems to be a nutritious environment for fungus. It will grow in, as opposed to on or under the carpet. A unit in Naples that was closed up for the summer without AC actually had 2"-3" mushrooms growing out of the carpet. Granted that was a bit extreme, but the black spots sound like a similar problem.
