One of the factors that make the high number of victims is a glance there is no difference between toxic mold and edible mushrooms.
To prevent poisoning, residents are asked to buy only wrapped mushrooms, which sells many shops.
The BBC's Persian correspondent says people sometimes buy mushrooms from street vendors. Allegedly this dead mushroom comes from here.
The Tasnim news agency said the poisonous poisonous mushroom grew in the mountains of western Iran after the spring rains.
Some reports say the high rainfall last month made the production of wild mushrooms increased rapidly.

Salah satu faktor yang membuat tingginya angka korban adalah sekilas tak ada perbedaan antara jamur beracun dan jamur yang bisa dimakan.
Untuk mencegah keracunan, warga diminta hanya membeli jamur yang dibungkus, yang banyak dijual toko-toko.
Wartawan BBC Persia mengatakan warga kadang membeli jamur dari para pedagang di pinggir jalan. Diduga jamur maut ini berasal dari sini.
Kantor berita Tasnim mengatakan jamur liar beracun tumbuh di daerah pegunungan di Iran barat setelah musim hujan musim semi.
Beberapa laporan menyebutkan tingginya curah hujan bulan lalu membuat produksi jamur liar meningkat pesat.
