2 - They could use a legit debit/prepaid credit card that has no name tied to it.

3 - They could use a stolen credit card.

4 - They could use a SW gift card that has no name tied to it - other than other bookings if SW wanted to dig deeper.

The person who actually traveled would have had to show ID. That person would have undoubtedly had some connection to whoever booked the flight.
