Sounds like you are trying to use someone else’s credit card, which is illegal.

They would certainly know sooner or later, when it shows up on their bill.

Yes, if the purchase is unusual then the credit card will call the account holder to verify it’s an authorized purchase. There is also a security code somewhere on the card they will ask for and sometimes security questions will be asked just to verify that the account holder is the one making the purchase.
Hope this helps

Yes. Either they call the person up before the purchase is made, or they will find out when they get the bill.
