1. Disable the account from further access.

2. Send a postcard to the billing address where you signed up (verified against credit reports) with a one time verification code, upon which some second factor is set up. Maybe put 20 "rescue codes" on the postcard too, if you like.

3. Force user to enable some sort of second factor authentication on their next login.
