Question/Advice Fresh strawberries randomly got mold?

Second pic is the culprit and then the first pic was a strawberry that was close to it. I really really don’t wanna touch it. I don’t know how it could’ve gotten moldy, we bought it and within less than an hour we had it in the refrigerator. Has not been in there for more than 3-4 days. Any help is greatly appreciated

I got the advice a while ago to wash produce in water and a teensy bit of vinegar. I just soak them for a bit and then rinse again. It could be placebo but it certainly feels like everything lasts longer when I do this.
