Well luckily git has timestamps. And we have a manual approval step before bounties are paid out. So the original developer would have to raise a dispute somewhere (issue, email, etc.) and I could go through the commit history to see who wrote the code originally. Although I think that would be an extreme edge case. Especially with a low bounty. I don't think it's worth the effort of ripping off another contributor. And if the bounty was like $10,000. I would pay a lot more attention to the solution before sending out the money.
