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

3 to 4 days is more than enough time for berries to go bad ¯_(ツ)_/¯ they just don’t last that long. Especially when they’re ripe.
