If they have yellow flowers they are mock strawberry. Not poisonous, just not tasty.

Wild strawberry.

Indian Snakeberry; Not poisonus. Is edible tho not tasty.
Wild strawberries look exactly like miniature strawberries W/ 100 X the flavor.
Happy forager here.

They look to be growing from several small green leafy vine type plants in clusters throughout my backyard; however the plants are not taller or wider than 4-5in. I also have a very mature concord grape vine back there that the previous owners planted, so I'm curious if these really are strawberries that they planted once? wild strawberries? My house has been empty for two years, so who knows? I live in Ga if that helps.
I'll try and post a pic.
