Strawberry or Weed?

Hi guys,
I am having a very difficult time trying to decide if this is a weed or a strawberry plant. I planted seeds in the area it is growing, but I was told this might be a weed. It is taking over and growing like crazy. I know strawberrys can create runners, but this thing seems to be growing taller and wider each week. I cut back a few and then the ones that are there just grow bigger. That reminds me of a weed. It does not smell like a strawberry. I always see rabbits hiding under it as well. They jump out from underneath it.

    I just looked at Weed IDs and this looks almost exactly like Cinquefoil. Do you guys agree? I think It's a weed.

    It was definitely a weed. I pulled it all out and replaced it with newspaper and new mulch. Hope I don't get that crap again.
