Another added: “In Arlington, Virginia. Cannot access my notifications… what’s going on??!!”

Friday the 13th. Facebook down. Coincidence?

Some people are suggesting the issues have something to do with today being Friday the 13th.
“Friday 13th-coinkdink? I think not,” wrote one Facebook user.
“All the pages are empty except for profile pic and header photo. Friday the 13th? Hmmmm strange,” another added.
