If they are copyrighted images which they most likely are, then yes, that would be illegal.

Advertising people work as yours, without giving credit to the rightful owner is defiantly illegal. However, if you are just posting it on Facebook, nothing too serious will happen.

Ouch

just put in the top "All photos are the respected owners', I do not own ANYTHING." That clears you from all illegalism

[Freetems]

There are several types of free licensing that allows using images in such way, but most likely the random images found on google aren't free and can't be used like that. If you want to run page legally, look for images with proper creative commons license or the ones that are in public domain. You won't find there everything you need, but that's how it looks.

Yes, if it is plagiarism

Technically. Almost all images you find online are copyrighted. And technically you aren't supposed to just take them without permission. But in reality you won't get in any trouble as long as you take them down immediately if someone who owns the pictures tells you to (and that probably won't even happen).
