Sign a contract. Also upload your design to flickr/dribbble/etc to have it as proof that you created it..

If someone uses your design on the marketplace without your permission, you can open a support ticket and use those as proof.

How Do I Claim Infringement of My Copyright? (Lodging a DMCA Notice)

Add a reference to your PSD rejection email, communication exchanged/contract between you and the coder as well.
