sounds like he was simulating openid-connect flows by saying "login with Google" or "login with Facebook" and then storing the credentials entered which would be cleartext.

I always suspicious of these flows for specifically this reason. The flows are secure as long as you know you are talking to the correct identity provider, but I think most laymen would not understand that concept.
