You can make ERC-20 address on myetherwallet MEW for basic wallet ERC-20.
MEW is really safe address for ERC-20 or Ethereum blockchain address, you can use that address after you build it.

Hmmm, indeed myetherwallet is safe for storing ERC-20 coins. but if you observe, a lot of scams or scam websites whose names are almost the same as myetherwallet. make sure when you want to create a wallet address using a website that is really trusted and There are no typos in writing the website https://www.myetherwallet.com

Such sites that imitate the official landing page of MEW were developed with the purpose to fool users and force them to show them the private keys. This is why one has to be very attentive of all the details of that page.First things first, pay attention to URL. Fishing sites differ in this. The difference might be slightly noticeble, only in one character for example, that may looks like original one but in fact has different encoding. Good habit is to check the validity of the MEW site certificate when landing the page. Google to learn how to do it for your favorite browser. Some fishing MEW sites may not provide the option to access ETH address with hardware wallets like Trezor or Ledger. Actually, the best way to protect yourself is the use of cold wallet combined with any HW. TLDR; be always circumspect and cautious.
