My tenant is bailing out on me!

Last month, my tenant told me that she was moving out at the end of this month. I informed her of the early termination fee that would be due in addition to the rent for this month, since she was breaking her lease. I just reminded her of it again yesterday. She said she would have this month's rent this Sunday.

This morning, she informed me that she gave this month's rent (my rent) to her new landlord! Not only that, she asked me if I could use the security deposit to hire a moving van to move her, since she doesn't have anymore money left to hire a mover!

What would you do in this situation?
