Hey James,

That's the whole idea behind Free Software Projects. Choose your license
wisely.

The idea behind Free Software Projects is that users can Fork your project
if they need to.
They legally can't pretend it to be theirs though, because they must retain
authorship of your code.

They may financially benefit from it, but depending on your license, the
restrictions you use (Such as forcing them to share back any modifications)
would discourage most to do so.

Hope to have been of any help.
