Absolutely wrong...even if you're not caught. Plagiarism is a form of stealing. You are stealing possible royalties and income from the author of whatever it was you stole.

And hearken, a copyright is assumed on all images and text even if a copyright symbol is not indicated. But it is not plagiarism if you cite your source when you copy something into your own work.

At my university, if a student is caught stealing text or images from someone else and uses it in their own work, that student is expelled.

Ignorance of the law is no excuse. And to a point plagiarism really only becomes an issue when the plagiarized piece is submitted for pay or for grades, like in school. If you copy War and Peace word for word for their own use that's not plagiarism.
