I got that email and immediately went to onion [dot] dog just to check out the site... was pretty clear it was some weird onion gateway so I decided not to go to the link.

I mean, you could probably go to the onion link directly with a Tor browser.....but that's probably a bad idea too. I'd open it in a VMed machine maybe.

They send all sort of weird stuff (lots of odd phising test emails similar to this one) so this was not completely unexpected.

But the wording the link was a bit off and I really didn't think much of it and moved on

Maybe even wget it via torproxy on a sandboxed VM.
