Is there a not so overly complicated way to check it first or should we just not click it altogether?

While far from 100% success, google will reveal you some link scanners:

But all in all, looking at the link and what file type it links to should in itself be an indication. .jpg and the like being obviously safe links. Other than the occational goatse.
