if you use VZaccess manager they can tell because it uses the @DUN.vzw3g.com username and third party apps (ie PDAnet) uses the @vzw3g.com username so for all Vzw knows you are just using your phone as normal. of course if you go over 5Gb (or something around that) they might start looking at your usage and you may get hit with something. I have never heard about anyone getting caught tethering this way but it is a possibility.
