This is true, and I mentioned something similar above.Any image on Google is copyrighted, so the license terms must be determined. In fact, anything you create, such as a scribble on a napkin, is instantly copyrighted as you begin scribbling.
But it‘s enforced about as much as speed limits and with less penalty most of the time. Most likely the worst that happens is you have to pull the images down. So long as you pull any copyrighted works when asked, there is little legal recourse for image owners, particularly from casual use.
Now if you tried turning someone’s photos into a big advertising campaign without compensation, that would be a different sort of issue.
It is certainly the right thing to do to ask first though.
