There are different fungal agents that fit under Anthracnose. The infection occurs on the outside of the pepper usually during the ripening stage when spores are are splashed up from the soil.
If the infection has progressed to where fruiting bodies have formed on the inside of the pepper then it is likely that the seed will be carrying Anthracnose spores on the seed coat.
I agree that a short bleach treatment on the seed coat to kill the spores is probably a good idea.
