Reneging FT Offer

I recently accepted a consulting offer but was wondering if it would be risky to renege for a different consulting job? Pay at the new place would be much higher and the work more interesting. The new firm does not compete with the current one.

If it's for an internship, than the stakes are lower. But make sure you have offer #2 in writing and signed before you reneg. But, remember that your bridge with the first company will be burned, no going back.
