Suppose some Numenoreans did realize Sauron bamboozled them. They're deep in enemy territory, surrounded by hostile servants of the Dark Lord who they had enslaved. Their only real course of action would be to flee to Gondor--there's no way the Taurethrim, at the time deep in civil strife and chaos over succesion, would help them, and the Morwaith are hostile to them as well, for they worship Sauron.

Overall, the likelihood of surviving Numenoreans of any kind of purity in Far Harad is slim to none, and certainly there would be no repentant ones.

Ithilion, Discussions Moderator (Auta i lómë) There are other suggested factions for far harad, some of whom might help them, but yes, they would be hard pressed for some time. The Black Numenoreans did oppress/massacre a lot of Haradrim from various tribes. However, a few things might help. Their superiority in technology might help them to hang on (I doubt that several hundred years of advancements could be wiped out instantaneously). If you're stranded deep in enemy territory, You can't exactly go on a long voyage as 1) I doubt they had enough ships, 2) are probably under constant attacks, 3) do they know that the Faithful have made it to their northern colonies & haven't been destroyed, & 4) do you really think Gondor, or Armor for that matter, would trust them? They would think they're spies & probably kill them.
