You need to use mod_rewrite to match against query strings .

Try this in htaccess :

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^attachment_id=99$  
RewriteRule ^/?$ http://example.com? [NC,L,R]

Empty question mark at the end of the target url is important ,as it discards the orignal query strings.
