First, I don't believe these accounts have been hacked. The most common hack is the owner left a computer with his account logged in. Eithet that or the owner tried to log from a different location than those facebook associated with the account.

Have a look at how websites which don't require real name and identities do it and there you have your answer. (Or just look at how facebook does it other than requiring ID).
