# Creating a new wallet 1. Agree to terms of service and click Create Wallet 2. Create a new password 3. Write down and save your secret recovery phrase 1. We recommend writing 3 copies of your secret recovery phrase onto 3 separate pieces of paper. 2. If your computer gets any viruses, malware, or becomes compromised in any way, malicious actors will get access to your secret phrase. 3. Quick and easy digital access makes people more likely to put their secret phrase into a scam website or fake version of the Ghost wallet accidentally. 4. Beware of fake customer support scams and always verify that the url is `ghostwallet.org`. Ghost team members will never try to contact you via email, text, X, Telegram, Discord, or any other form of communication. 4. Confirm your secret recovery phrase by entering the 3rd, 5th, and 8th missing words. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
